Over 20 States Have Adopted Digital Vaccine Verification Systems

21 states – including red states like Arizona, Mississippi, and West Virginia – have rolled out SMART Health Cards, a digital proof of vaccination developed by the Vaccination Credential Initiative (VCI)

Portraying it as a good thing: According to Forbes, the verification system facilitates easy domestic and international travel, convenient access to health records, and prepares Americans for the inevitable, next pandemic.

Concerns: Opponents raise data privacy concerns and correctly fear that this system will enable more mandates and their enforcement, systematically barring the unvaccinated from freedoms.
