🚨 We've already told you that multi-million £ contracts have been awarded for the continued maintenance & development of Test & Trace incl. the #NHS #COVID19 app.

But it gets worse. @NHSDigital are hiring for *permanent* #COVIDPass management ⤵️

jobs.digital.nhs.uk/vacancies/1896…
🛂 The Govt removed their advice/guidance for the domestic #NHS #CovidPass on April 1st & that it would remain on the NHS app for a 'limited period'.

This is in stark contrast to the job opportunities from @NHSDigital

Now we know they don't want this going anywhere.
We maintain that it's naive for any individual or organisation to conclude that simply because the legal reqs to present an #NHS #CovidPass at certain events & venues were dropped, that it was finished.

Another wake up call for everyone that we're not done with this yet.

On Mar 7th we contacted @HumzaYousaf re: domestic #vaccinepassports in #Scotland, we've received a response.

◽️ No indicative timescale clarified as to whether domestic, voluntary COVID-status certification will end. All we're told is it will 'therefore remain'.

(contd.)
◽️ Even though @scotgov advised businesss' who opt to use voluntary certification to be clear about their objectives checking COVID-status, doesn't make the scheme *itself* justifiable or proportionate to continue.

◽️ Intl #CovidPass will remain for 'at least' another year.
◽️ 'Helping customers feel safe' is an example of creating an artifical, nonsensical 'demand' for certification, which does *nothing* to prevent spread of #SARSCoV2.

◽️ Blaming a virus for 'inequality' is ridiculous. Govt overrection caused more damage than #COVID19.

🚨🚨 @sajidjavid - “Having gone through the Delta wave and so many South Africans having being infected with Delta whether there is a high degree of natural protection through infection”

➡️ Government just removed natural immunity from #CovidPass

➡️ Ignore science for control
If the Health Secretary thinks South Africa may be coping better with #Omicron because of natural immunity then why is the UK Government now refusing to even acknowledge this as I explained here to @iancollinsuk
Even Chris Whitty was talking about the impact of natural immunity on reducing the hospital rate - the immune system offering good protection against infection.

Soeben erschienen: ein 3-Teiler mit @JannesvanRoermu über #Covidpass #Covidzertifikat Wir haben nachgehakt, Zusammenhänge mit #FunctionCreep und E-Id gefunden. @RecheckHealth hat einen Leak gekriegt um was mit unsere Daten passiert #CovidGesetzNein #CovidGesetzJa (1/)
Was #FunctionCreep von Innovation unterscheidet ist die qualitative Veränderung der Funktionsweise. Einer der möglichen Function Creeps für das #Covidzertifikat überschneidet sich mit der Agenda von mächtigen Interessensgruppen #Privacy #Datenschutz #digsec
Unterdessen behauptet @BAG_OFSP_UFSP das #Covidzertifikat #CovidPass sei nur lokal in der App der Smartphone gespeichert. Ein Leak und weitere Recherchen haben gezeigt: es stimmt nicht. #UVCI #transparenz #digsec >> re-check.ch/wordpress/fr/f…

Just out: a 3-parts series with @JannesvanRoermu on #Covidpass #Covidcertificate We’ve been digging deeper in its links to #FunctionCreep and E-id. Bonus material: @RecheckHealth received a leak on what happens with our data when tested/jabbed #CovidGesetzNein #CovidGesetzJa (1/)
What distinguishes #FunctionCreep from innovation: it involves a qualitative change in functionality. One of the possible function creeps for #Covidpass #Covidcertificate coincides with the agenda of powerful interest groups. #privacy #dataprotection re-check.ch/wordpress/en/f…
Meanwhile, in Switzerland @BAG_OFSP_UFSP claims #COVIDcertificate is stored only locally in the App on your smartphone: "Neither personal data nor the certificates are stored in a central system”. A leak and further research showed: it's more complicated than that #UVCI (3/)

So the Gov't has gone from promising a review of #VaccinePassports in February...

bbc.co.uk/news/uk-561696…

to officials saying #domestic uses are "dead" and "not going to happen" in May...

independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…

to the review stating they won't be #mandated in early July...
...to @BorisJohnson announcing they WILL be #mandatory for (mostly) young people from the end of September:

thetimes.co.uk/article/labour…
Meanwhile, and despite MONTHS of denials*, it turns out the Government has already spent £23.6 million on #VaccinePassports 👇 and has already cut deals that could run until 2023 at least...

New Travel Pass Information Digital Framework from @wef is coming

#CommonPass: Helping people travel the world in the Covid era.

2.

This simple digital solution could help streamline global travel and boost trade during COVID.

#CommonPass could jumpstart economic recoveries by helping people safely travel between countries, all while protecting their private data and containing the virus.
3.

The framework lets travelers access lab test results & vaccination records held through existing data systems or personal digital health records apps (such as Apple Health or @Android Common Health).

So both #COVID19 Testing and Vaccine Data is shared.
