New Zealand’s Prime Minister admitted vaccination certificate programs are designed to create two classes of people.
In an interview on Sunday, Jacinda Ardern was asked if she was trying
to cure freedoms for those who aren’t vaccinated. She said without
hesitation, that is in fact what the purpose of the certifications are.
Ardern noted it’s about security, so those who are vaccinated can
feel comfortable knowing there aren’t any unvaccinated people around
them.
“What’s become clear to me is they’re not just a tool to drive up
vaccines. They’re a tool for confidence,” claimed Ardern. “People who
have been vaccinated will want to know that they’re around other
vaccinated people. They’ll want to know they’re in a safe environment.”
New Zealand originally pursued a full elimination strategy for COVID,
though this has since proven impossible with the Delta variant
outbreak. Ardern said she has no plans to lift lockdowns in New Zealand
until 90 percent of eligible residents become vaccinated.
