I'm struggling to see your point? If someone wants to exercise their freedom of association during a pandemic they should be able to do so. I feel very strongly about this and don't like the alternative of restricting people's rights unnecessarily.

Sorry I may have misinterpreted. So the pass does actually provide live covid status (positive/negative)? That's interesting, I thought they just showed vaccine status

No. I'm saying it provides vaccine information which people can use to make an informed decision.

Maybe I'm just old fashioned but I believe in individual freedom. I should have the right to choose. I should have the right to associate with who I want to associate with.

I'm really uncertain why people are so intent on taking away essential rights. Even though you may not agree with the choices people make, they should be allowed to make them.

But you seem to be asking for the implementation of the passport, which takes away specifically the rights of others to freely associate. And, if you are vaccinated what is to be afraid of the unvaccinated for? They do not automatically have covid, likely more for them to fear from not knowing which vaccinated person happens to have covid instead.
