Ireland's Vaccine Pass: Everything We Know So Far

The reopening of hospitality has been delayed again - and it's now balancing on the controversial introduction of a vaccine pass system. What exactly is a vaccine pass and how would it work in Ireland? A vaccine pass could grant those who are vaccinated or immune access to indoor restaurants and amenities - but it has been steeped in controversy with allegations of discrimination and inequality and the question of who exactly would police the pass. In this podcast, host Denise Calnan speaks to Irish Independent Political Editor Philip Ryan who tells us everything we need to know about the pass - and who is for and against it. Dublin restaurateur Angela Ruttledge shares how she believes the pass will work in her everyday business - and we check in with journalist Tom Carstensen who joins us from Denmark where they have successfully introduced a domestic vaccine certificate system.You can listen, follow and subscribe to InFocus wherever you like to listen to your podcasts.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
