Taffin Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 9 hours ago, Saint Jambo said: Border control certainly haven't been checking every international arrivals vaccine status or covid tests in recent months, so maybe not the best analogy to iillustrate your point. They are however checking everyone's passport though... It was a throwaway line, but I do believe if you think it's worth doing something, it's worth doing it right. 9 hours ago, Saint Jambo said: As with the major events, border control know that the point of these measures isn't to elminate all risk, it is primarily to reduce risk by driving up compliance with guidelines on testing or vaccinating. Or to take another related example, customs don't stop and search everyone entering the country. They apply a spot check approach. That is enough to put most people off breaking the customs rules but doesn't stop all smuggling into the UK. This measure for events will nudge some people to get the vaccine (or the second dose of the vaccine) and persuade some people who aren't vaccinated not to go and join large crowds. Both reduce overall health risk at minimal social or economic cost, which is the aim of public health policy. Does is reduce the overall health risk vs keeping LFTs as a means of obtaining a passport as per the trial events? Or does it just save cost. I'm feeling it's the latter but happy to be shown otherwise. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jr ewing Posted September 24 Share Posted September 24 19 hours ago, Ex member of the SaS said: Passports currently being challenged in court. It is lunacy to introduce them months after stadiums have been open to fans. Plus obviously England have dumped the idea so it really is pointless wasting large sums of cash on a system that is not required, as if it was required they should have done it before opening things up. System is already working. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Taffin Posted September 24 Share Posted September 24 (edited) Going to be in Scotland next week and would love to attend. Have they worked out how they're processing non-NHS Scotland passports yet? Just read the full release from Hearts and they don't mention it so I'm guessing they have got it sorted. Good news!! Edited September 24 by Taffin Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fingers crossed Dave. It was this on the Scot Gov website that makes me nervous: 'We are working with other UK jurisdictions to ensure inter-operability across the UK. Guidance will be issued on this, and on what evidence people vaccinated outside the UK will be required to provide, before implementation.' That was updated yesterday so they've only 7 days to rectify it. The English 'passport' still says 'valid in England'...though that doesn't mean it's not valid elsewhere I guess.

Any gripes season ticket holders have with regards to getting into the Stadium should be directed at the Scottish govt and not the club .
