The Labour former Prime Minister said it was "time to distinguish for the purposes of freedom" between fully jabbed Brits and those who haven't been vaccinated - both at home and abroad. The Covid status certificates would allow Brits to provide proof of vaccination, a negative test or immunity from recent infection. "With this ability to securely prove vaccination status, we can move beyond blunt, catch-all tools and align with other countries by removing certain restrictions for the fully vaccinated, thereby enabling us to sustainably reopen the economy," it said. "Nothing matters more to risk than vaccination, which is precisely why we're doing it," Mr Blair said.
