Vaccine passport added to NHS app
Businesses that instruct their staff to get vaccinated before returning to the office (and so, barring those who don’t get ‘jabbed’) are introducing a ‘smart policy’, according to foreign secretary Dominic Raab. His comments come as a domestic vaccine passport has been introduced to the NHS app. Suggesting that plans for vaccine passports could be dropped if enough people came forward for a jab, Raab said that ‘questions of vaccine certification become much less relevant and much less salient’ the more people were immunised – Times
