So, as you say, what is the point of a vaccine passport?

Also, though I can understand why they're doing it, the mass testing of the lorry drivers isn't foolproof. We're really just grasping at straws and hoping for the best as that's all that we can do at this point in time.

The mutations in the UK & South Africa have really added fuel to the fire.

That's some positive news, I suppose it's only a matter of waiting to see what happens and hoping for the best now.
Money.

If you wanted to sell say, 90,000 tickets to an Anthony Joshua fight at Wembley you wouldn't need to maintain distancing if you only sold tickets to those who had been vaccinated. The aggregate of all the sectors you could fully reopen - to those vaccinated only - and economic impact on their supply chains is huge.

No passport and everyone is left applying the precautionary principle, restrictions, distancing, etc.
