Debate Over Potential Use Of Vaccine Passports Heating Up

By CBSLA Staff, CBS Los Angeles:

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) — The debate is heating up about whether sporting venues, theaters or businesses should require proof of vaccination.

“I think it’s a good idea for now,” Brian Sullivan said. “I think there needs to be a transition between where we’ve been for the last year plus and where we’re going.”

Some, like Sullivan, believe so-called vaccine passports can help large-scale venues reopen faster as the region moves out of the pandemic. It would mean that anyone going to a concert, theater, cruise or other large gathering would have to show proof of vaccination to get in.
