    And so it begins...

    Excerpt
    :
    Ticketmaster has been working on a framework for post-pandemic fan safety that uses smart phones to verify fans' vaccination status or whether they've tested negative for the coronavirus within a 24 to 72 hour window.

    Details of the plan still in development will rely on three separate components --

    The Ticketmaster digital ticket app,

    - third party health information companies like CLEAR Health Pass or IBM's Digital Health Pass,

    and Health providers like Labcorp and the CVS Minute Clinic.


    Here's how it would work...

    1. After purchasing a ticket for a concert, fans would need to verify that they have already been vaccinated (which would provide approximately one year of COVID-19 protection)

    - or test negative for coronavirus approximately 24 to 72 hours prior to the concert.

    - The length of coverage a test would provide would be governed by regional health authorities -- if attendees of a Friday night concert had to be tested 48 hours in advance, most could start the testing process the day before the event. If it was a 24-hour window, most people would likely be tested the same day of the event at a lab or a health clinic.

    2. Once the test was complete, the fan would instruct the lab to deliver the results to their health pass company, like CLEAR or IBM.

    If the tests were negative, or the fan was vaccinated, the health pass company would verify the attendee's COVID-19 status to Ticketmaster, which would then issue the fan the credentials needed to access the event.

    3. If a fan tested positive,

    or didn't take a test to verify their status,

    they would not be granted access to the event.

    Woah. I knew this was going to happen, but it's still scary because it really IS actually going to happen.

    They cannot make a vaccine mandatory, but they can find ways around it, like not being able to go to a concert you paid ridiculous sums of money to attend, or not being able to get on an airplane, or not being able to go back into your place of work.

    These Orwellian times are pretty scary.
