NY to require vaccination passports to re-enter society

Beginning this Friday, April 2nd, New Yorkers will need vaccine passports to re-enter society. Governor Andrew Cuomo calls it the Excelsior Pass. Meanwhile, we have super spreader events at the border with illegals pouring in, not tested, and allowed to travel the country, sick or not.

If a New Yorker doesn’t have the pass, participating businesses won’t let them in unless they’ve had a negative COV test.

THE PASS

The New York Post reported that the “Excelsior Pass” would officially launch on April 2, following an announcement from Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D-NY) on Friday.

New Yorkers can get the Excelsior Pass Wallet App and print out their pass, which is like an airline boarding pass.

The pass won’t show health info, just a green checkmark if the person is vaccinated or a red ‘x’ if not.

In a statement, Cuomo said: “New Yorkers have proven they can follow public health guidance to beat back COVID, and the innovative Excelsior Pass is another tool in our new toolbox to fight the virus while allowing more sectors of the economy to reopen safely and keeping personal information secure.”

“The question of ‘public health or the economy” has always been a false choice — the answer must be both. As more New Yorkers get vaccinated each day and as key public health metrics continue to regularly reach their lowest rates in months, the first-in-the-nation Excelsior Pass heralds the next step in our thoughtful, science-based reopening,” he added.

This program was announced earlier in March and the app launched on Friday.

DON’T WORRY, THEY’LL PROTECT YOUR PRIVACY

He claims our privacy is protected here in New York, but we doubt it.

“Robust privacy protections are woven throughout the digital health pass solution, giving individuals a secure, verifiable and trusted way to maintain control of their personal health information using an encrypted digital smartphone wallet or printed credential. Each participant will be able to determine if they would like to use it — and if so, what passes they wish to use for which purpose — all without sharing their underlying personal data. User data is always kept completely confidential, and participation is voluntary. The QR code only informs the venue if a pass is valid or invalid,” said a press release for the program.

“And participation is voluntary.” If you don’t SHOW YOUR PAPERS, you just cannot participate in society in New Yawk. At what point does this “passport” violate federal HIPPA regulations? It would seem that the medical society must provide a person’s private medical information to a third party to produce the “passport.” Besides, if it’s “racist” to require a photo ID to vote (when the photo ID is free and readily available) how is it not “racist” to demand a virus ID, which must be produced (or reproduced) on an expensive computer?

Spotted earlier online…easily downloadable and printable forgeries of the passport.
You see the evolved enlightened beings are really just feckless power mad control freaks who will end up controlling nothing but the faculty lounge choom circle jerk.

Where are your papers old man? NY is showing us the level of Total Control that Democrats really want to have over every aspect of our lives. They want to track EVERYONE. They want to control your access and what you say; even what you will think. We give house pets more freedom than this. I’m glad to have retired to a Red State that is becoming more Red every day. Here in the Rural South, we hardly noticed the Covid Hoax, except for Democrat’s trying to close churches. The community showed them the wood shed. The best restaurant in one town still won’t allow the Mayor or City Counsel members in for trying to shut it down. The mayor was thrown out of his church and is also facing recall. It’s rumored his law office is now facing bankruptcy. People can fight back against Tyrants. Vote for freedom and boycott tyranny. I now shop at the community Co-op every chance I can instead of the big chain stores run by Democrat interest.

Lockdowns, business closures and masks were the first step and now the next step in the conditioning of subjects to their total control by tyrants. How’s voting for Democrats in control working for you?
