I emailed my MSP about this whole shenanigans and this is some of what I got back -
”Please note that as the Scottish Government have not yet laid the regulations to implement the proposals for vaccine certification, the information below should be taken as general guidance and may be subject to change.
Use of testing in place of vaccinations
The Scottish Government's vaccination certification scheme strategy document sets out the broad terms on how the scheme will operate:
https://www.gov.scot/publications/coronavirus-covid-19-mandatory-vaccine-certification/
Regarding the use of tests instead of vaccinations, the document notes:
"Initially, the scheme will not permit a negative test result to be offered as an alternative to evidence of vaccination, but this will be kept under review. At this stage, we do not consider that this would be appropriate and, indeed, could undermine one of the policy aims of the scheme, which is to increase vaccine uptake. Also, it is important at this stage to prioritise PCR lab capacity for Test and Protect purposes and while promoting regular LFD tests is an extremely important aspect of our overall approach, further work would be required on an optimal approach to incorporating testing, including consideration of the appropriateness of self-testing in this context.
We are working with a range of stakeholders to finalise the design of the scheme. These stakeholders include local government, NHS Boards and businesses/representative organisations in sectors that will be required to implement a certification scheme."
So confirmed in writing it’s a bribe to get people vaccinated. Nothing to do with the spread of the virus and everything to do with control as people have repeatedly said on this thread.
