According to reports, England is moving away from its plans to require COVID-19 vaccine passports as a way to curb viral spread in various social settings, including nightclubs, bars and large gatherings.
“We just shouldn’t do things for good or because other people do, and we should look at all possible interventions correctly.” Sajid Javid, Secretary of Health of the United Kingdom he told the BBC on Sunday.
“We have looked at it correctly and while we should keep it in reserve as a potential option, I am pleased to say that we will not go ahead with plans for vaccine passports,” he added.

Javid’s announcement marks a sharp shift in England’s plans as Vaccine Minister Nadhim Zahawi told the network last week that the end of September would be the right time to implement a vaccine passport plan . However, Javid defended the change on Sunday, saying citizens should not submit documents for common activities.
“I never liked the idea of saying that you have to show your papers or something to do what is just a daily activity. But we were right to look at it properly, to look at the evidence, ”said Javid.
The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Boris Johnson, is expected to announce the “government’s plan to manage COVID in the coming months and in this we will make it clear that our vaccination program is working”. according to Javid.
