Swedes Get 'Chipped' With Vaccine Passports
Interesting Swedish news piece about one possible way to carry your vaccine passport - namely, internally. Along with your vaccine.
An early science-fictional use of the idea of being "chipped" or implanted with a microchip occurred in the legendary cyberpunk classic Neuromancer by author William Gibson:
M-G employees above a certain level were implanted with advanced microprocessors that monitored mutagen levels in the bloodstream. Gear like that would get you rolled in Night City, straight into a black clinic.
