Annual boosters with the mutations covered makes sense to me - I have no medical qualification - which means that an internationally recognised vaccine passport makes even more sense. So that stuffs up British travellers as our government has assured us that they will not be getting involved in a vaccine passport. Plus this lot would probably screw that up as they have with every aspect of the pandemic apart from letting the NHS treat people and plan and deliver the vaccination programme - the government repeatedly locked down late and ineffectually, bribed people to mix socially in the summer and allowed the borders to remain open with no enforced isolation until mid February 2021 thereby creating a tidal wave of cases for the NHS to try to tackle.
