In Australia the rationale for a Vaccine Passport is because the unvaccinated are super spreaders.
Yet, the latest data out of the UK (COVID-19 vaccine surveillance report Week 42, Page 13) [1] shows that the double-vaccinated are around TWICE as likely to catch COVID-19 (and according to the CDC, the viral load of a vaccinated person is the same as an unvaccinated person due to the vaccines being systemic and not mucosal vaccines).
This leaves two possible reasons for vaccine passports;
1) To punish the unvaccinated for not taking the vaccine.
2) To reduce the burden on the health system. But in a country nearing 90% double vaccinated, this point holds less weight.
