The United Kingdom will not introduce COVID-19 vaccine passport, the vaccine deployment minister Nadhim Zahawi said on Sunday. "We are certainly not looking to introduce it as part of the vaccine deployment programme," Zahawi told Sky News. Vaccines Minister Nadhim Zahawi said Sunday that vaccine passports would be discriminatory and officials did not want getting vaccinated to be “made in some way mandatory through a passport." Sweden plans to launch a digital coronavirus “vaccine passport" by summer, the government said earlier. Denmark said on Wednesday that it would launch a first version of a coronavirus vaccination passport by the end of February.
