If a digital vaccine passport assists in keeping national borders open, then the tourism industry is “all for it”, says Australian Tourism Industry Council Executive Director Simon Westaway.

New South Wales is among those voicing interest in the idea of a digital vaccine passport which could prohibit a person from entering a venue if they have refused a COVID-19 jab.

“The great thing is that the travel industry works through crises and has dealt with a lot of problematic issues over the years,” Mr Westaway told Sky News. “We just need a fair go here, and if they – a digital passport around your vaccination – assists in keeping borders open we’re all for it quite frankly. “Particularly if it’s an app based technology which would just sit on your mobile phone.”

By law every human being has the god given right to travel wherever they want!! Fact!! It’s called freedom of movement and cannot be restricted!!

American cat here...if I was a Gov't official in Australia, There's no way that I would let a nut job, Trump supporter from America into my country without a vaccine passport. They care less about the safety of others. But hey, I'm a cat so I don't have a dog in the fight.

This will create segregation: the ones that get the jab, and the ones who do not want it. Similar to Jim Crow laws. Outstanding!

But there’s no evidence that vaccinated can’t spread the virus? So why is it being pushed as a golden ticket to freedom? When the results are the same as those who won’t be vaccinated.. madness

YES! the precedent is there with the yellow fever vaccine being required in many countries. Want to travel? Get a vaccine. For whatever reason you can't get one? You'll just have to WAIT to travel until herd immunity is established. nobrainer

This will end up being more damaging to society than the virus ever was.

The people aren't though so good luck with that. We'll see you in Court

The vaccine does not stop transmission. This is well documented.

It's no different to losing your tights in a dictatorship ... no better than the constitution of nazis and communists ... no free choice - freedom is dead if this happens

Absolutely. Let's get on with it, let's travel and support the industry (and restore our mental health) Travel

Bollocks

Dont need vax passports...FREEDOM AIRLINES Fantastic Brilliant Counter Culture Solution to Globalists mass control agenda.

Mark on the beasts

Ha. Sky News doing its part in propagandising people and manufacturing consent.

I'm sure that violates a myriad of healthcare privacy laws.

Don’t get the vaccines they are harming and killing people. The moderna one has aborted fetuses in it it may seem. They all may. So if you are Catholic you can’t get them then if that’s true. Just don’t get them. You still have to follow the restrictions and it may harm you.

Money.

That’s what happens when money becomes the only relevant “value”. They just buy everybody to push their agenda. Crazy psychopaths.

And ultimately that's the kicker. If the international moneyed interests see it as helpful to their bottom lines, it WILL become the norm across the globe. The infrastructure is already there, seeing as may need a record of immunizations for other conditions for schools, etc.

What happened to the Flu? It has been reported that Flu cases were down 98% in 2020, unbelievable it magically disappeared into something renamed with the exact same symptoms. What a big Coincidence. You gotta be dumb as hell honestly..

Some of you need this

I see there will be no travel for many people in the future. Bad idea.

AndyEastAnglia Run a poll and ask people who would have it to travel.

looks like there is a 60000 to 1 chance of anaphylactic reaction to the provisionally approved vaccine. I am not anti Vax, i just don't want to be part of the experiment. LOL

Vaccine passport can only work if you have a vaccine which offers IMMUNITY The vaccines on offer now DO NOT, let’s say that again DO NOT STOP YOUR CATCHING OR PASSING IT ON ! FACT Just like those who have NOT had the vaccine FACT

Hope they don’t intend to use the ScottMorrisonMP waste of money Covid app for the digital passport

But it must go further.All corona patients treated must do so at own cost, and all related matters.This means having a vivid insurance, and so beforeWestaway gets too carried away by the $ signs,more thinking has to be done

Too late 60% of the western world's population know it's just part of the 'great reset agenda'

The coronavirus is spread in Australia exclusively by inward travellers. The tourism industry should look at the harm it does via spreading disease. Reject Tourism.

Insanity

Like most people, more worried about lockdowns than the actual virus. “If it keeps borders open then yes were for it”. Not, “if it keeps us all safe from this horrible plandemic”.

Hook it up to Medicare cards. Everybody has one....

Lets see who would want to travel! They think people are idiots and they will buy in and support the implementation of this global dictatorship. No to vaccine and no to vaccine passport! Yes to individual human freedom and f* china virus

Imagine saying this a year ago..

Nothing on all the rapists in the liberal party then? Not a surprise from Murdoch media.

Boycott the vaccine & vaccine passport businesses

Mandatory

Yeah right because nothing is ever hacked digitally. Lol
