Reasonable people can have different opinions on this.

Covid will never be eradicated, and I don’t personally think the price on passes (needing to carry and show your papers everywhere) is worth the prize.

“Carry your papers” and “papers please” was an authoritarian / police state trope a few years ago, so I think it’s something we have to be very careful introducing as these things can be hard to unwind after.

But again, a reasonable person could disagree, we all have to accept there is no absolute right or wrong here.
