Washington: In a major development, the While House on Tuesday issued a statement, saying it won’t issue ‘vaccine passports’. “The government is not now, nor will we be supporting a system that requires Americans to carry a credential. There will be no federal vaccinations database and no federal mandate requiring everyone to obtain a single vaccination credential,” White House press secretary Jen Psaki said on Tuesday.

As per updates from CNN, the White House has been clear that it would defer to private companies if they wanted to implement some type of vaccine passport system in which individuals would have to provide proof that they received one of the coronavirus shots.

Psaki further added that the interest is very simple from the federal government, which is American’s privacy and rights should be protected so that these systems are not used against people unfairly.
