New Study reveals how Americans feel about COVID-19 \u2018immunity passports\u2019"},"content":{"rendered":"\r\n

We surveyed 3,000 people to take the pulse of the nation when it comes to immunity<\/span> passports. We found that that opinion was quite divided \u2013 overall, 59%of Americans<\/strong> believe immunity<\/span> passports should be issued as proof of receiving the COVID-19 vaccine<\/span><\/strong>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Interestingly,\u00a0the\u00a0research also found that nearly 1 in 3 (30%)people believe there should be an interstate travel ban for people who have not had their COVID-19 vaccine<\/span>. While the idea of banning someone from travel based on their vaccination<\/span> status might divide the opinions of some, it should also be noted that some countries have had immunization<\/span> certificate requirements in place for a number of years for foreign travelers, to prevent the spread of diseases such as yellow fever<\/span> and polio.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Moreover, 60% of people think professional sports teams should give preference to ticketholders who have been vaccinated against the coronavirus<\/span>. This follows the announcement that this year, the Super Bowl gave away\u00a07,500 free tickets to healthcare workers<\/a>\u00a0who had received both doses of the vaccine<\/span>, to attend the game on February 7th<\/sup>. Considering the large crowds of people who attended sports games at stadiums and arenas before the pandemic, it\u2019s perhaps no wonder people would choose to feel more protected in these settings.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

More than half (53%) of people also think if they are issued, immunity<\/span> passports should also state which company\u2019s vaccine<\/span> people received.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Additionally, the survey found that over two in five (42%) say they would be concerned about privacy and data sharing if vaccine<\/span> passports are to be introduced. However,\u00a0nearly half (47%)<\/a>\u00a0would be willing to share their data with Big Pharma if it helped improve the COVID-19 vaccine<\/span>.<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
