Merkel: EU Leaders ‘Have All Agreed That We Need Vaccine Passports’

After the European Commission convened to discuss the potential of so called ‘vaccine passports’ Thursday, German Chancellor Angela Merkel told reporters that “We have all agreed that we need vaccine certificates.”

Bloomberg reports that Merkel added “In the future, it will certainly be good to have such a certificate but that will not mean that only those who have such a passport will be able to travel; about that, no political decisions have been made yet.”

The German leader also stated “This will make travelling within the EU possible and could pave the way for further travel from third countries into the EU,” suggesting that it will take three months to implement a vaccine passport system.

The report also notes that Commission President Ursula von der Leyen urged member states to make haste in agreeing a Europe wide system before Big Tech gets there first.

Von der Leyen reportedly cited Israel’s ‘Green Pass’ system, which the country is using as a domestic internal document, denying entry for the unvaccinated to public spaces including sports events, restaurants and hotels.

While admitting that it is “unclear whether you can transmit the disease even if you are vaccinated,” the Commission leader stated “It is important to have a European solution because otherwise others will go into this vacuum.” 

“Google and Apple are already offering solutions to the WHO [World Health Organization]. And this is sensitive information so we want to be very clear here that we offer a European solution,” Von der Leyen emphasised.

Alex Patelis, chief economic adviser to Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, noted “If we as European Union don’t provide a solution, somebody else will, whether it’s going to be the U.S. big tech companies or somebody else, the solution will be provided.”

“Let’s get the infrastructure ready,” Patelis added.

French President Emmanuel Macron has expressed skepticism over the notion of vaccine passports, but stated “We’ll have, in the end, a harmonious EU approach,” adding “It’s obvious because there is no other choice.”

While there have been scant reports of Apple or Google developing vaccine passports, and the WHO has expressed caution on the issue, there are plenty of other schemes under development and being rolled out, as we have repeatedly highlighted.

World Economic Forum Promotes ‘Smart Mask’ That Alerts You if You Forget to Wear It

Respondents warn it could be linked to social credit score system.

The World Economic Forum is promoting a ‘smart mask’ that tracks your breathing and alerts you via an app if you wear it improperly or forget to wear it at all.

Yes, really.

A video clip posted to the WEF’s official Twitter account this morning hypes the “the mask of the future,” designed by Chinese firm CirQ Technologies.

The smart mask tells you when to wash it, whether you’re wearing it properly, and alerts you via a sensor linked to a cellphone app when you’ve left it at home.

The environmental benefits of the mask are also touted as it would cut down on the number of disposable face masks that end up in land fills.

The fact that the mask can keep track of whether or not you’re wearing it let some respondents to suggest it could eventually be tied into a Chinese Communist-style social credit score system.

In China, the state has already linked its coronavirus tracking system to its social credit score program, dishing out punishments for those who fail to mask up or violate social distancing rules.

Another Twitter user noted how the promo video inadvertently admits that carbon dioxide is a significant health threat posed by too much mask wearing.

The Davos billionaire club appears to be pinning its agenda on the ‘new normal’ being a future of permanent mask mandates.

As we previously highlighted, World Economic Forum founder Klaus Schwab asserts in his book, Covid-19: The Great Reset, that the world will “never” return to normal.

Schwab also made it clear that transhumanism is an integral part of “The Great Reset” when he said that the fourth industrial revolution would “lead to a fusion of our physical, digital and biological identity,” which in his book he clarifies is implantable microchips that can read your thoughts.

Vaccine Passports Could be Required to Enter Shops in UK

Government accused of deliberately creating confusion.

The government has been accused of deliberately creating confusion after it was revealed that vaccine passports COULD be required to enter shops despite initial assurances that this wouldn’t be the case.

Prime Minister Boris Johnson and others within the government claimed that COVID passports are only being considered for mass gathering events like football matches and music concerts.

However, it has now emerged that there is nothing within a report released on Monday that would prevent them from being introduced later for premises like clothing shops, book stores and electronic outlets.

Once the vaccine passport has become normalized to enter those venues, it would then be far easier to introduce it in other settings such as pubs and restaurants.

“Downing Street did not rule out allowing use of Covid passports in clothes shops when pressed for clarity on when the certificates would be used,” reports the Daily Mirror.

“We have been clear that we will not require them as businesses reopen in stages two and three of the roadmap,” said a government spokesperson, once again refusing to offer clarity on whether they would be required beyond stage three after June 21.

Labour’s Jonathan Ashworth said the government was deliberately “creating confusion” around the issue.

“I do think it is discriminatory to say to somebody here in Leicester that you cannot go into Next or H&M unless you produce your vaccination status on an app, unless you produce that digital ID card,” he said.

“I don’t think that is fair. Now if ministers are saying, that is not what the policy is then they have to explain why does the policy document they produced last night permit that scenario?” asked Ashworth.

The government lied to the British public for 6 months insisting there were no plans for domestic passports at all while secretly funding companies to create the technology for the system.

Now they’ve been caught trying to mislead Brits again by telling them vaccine passports wouldn’t be required for pubs, restaurants or shops.

It’s now clear that there are potential plans for them to be introduced for all those venues later on in the summer.

As the video below explains, the ‘vaccine passport’ is actually a bioidentity card and is the first salvo of what is designed to become a Chinese Communist-style social credit score for the west.

Angry Business Owners Descend on Italian Parliament to Protest Against Lockdown

Demonstrators wear shackles and chains as they demand to be allowed to work.

Angry business owners wearing shackles and chains descended on the Italian Parliament in Rome to protest against crippling lockdown measures that are keeping their bars and restaurants closed.

A number of arrests were made as members of the Italian Business Movement clashed with police.

“We put chains on ourselves because we can’t go ahead and accept this situation. We want to reclaim our jobs and our freedom,” one protester told the media.

Current restrictions mean that bars and restaurants are only allowed to open in the day for takeaway, although some of the protesters are vowing to defy the rules and open at night from tonight.

“We just want to work, we don’t ask for anything else,” chanted the protesters, as others simply chanted “Work!” and “Freedom!”

“We ask for an immediate end to the national lockdown,” said another protester. “We ask for an immediate end to the coloring of different regions. And we ask for the immediate opening, without restrictions for people or times, of all commercial activity. Regardless of the statistics related to the disease.”

Italians will remain under lockdown depending on their region at least until the end of April, with non-essential movement and large Easter get-togethers banned by the government.

Meanwhile, a new poll of Italians conducted by Euromedia Research finds that 70 per cent are tired of the lockdown restrictions and want them to end.

Under 27 per cent of respondents said they don’t want the restrictions to be lifted while almost a third (30.6 per cent) say that they were no longer able to cope psychologically with the situation.
