There is much reporting that a COVID-19 vaccine will receive regulatory approval by year's end. While, and rightly so, first in line will be health care, public safety, and other "frontliners", I think most participants here are above the median population age, meaning some will be "next up".
All told, will those VAXED be willing to engage in discretionary out of town overnight travel, be such air, auto, or rail?
For myself, I'd like "a little more" than simply being VAXED. I'd like to see indoor recreation resumed (dining, bars, public events) and I would like to see some kind of evidential matter given to those who have been VAXED to carry much as ID. I guess this would be a sort of redux of the World Health Organization "Yellow Card" on which your various immunizations were recorded. I still have mine, needed for a 1960 "family trip" to Europe.

Remember that or something very similar from my tour to our southeast Asia vacationland in 1971, but at this point don't recall having to do similar in 1990 when I went to Taiwan to work. Was it still going on then and I just have forgotten, or had it ceased to be?

And here's another question --- will you be REQUIRED to become vaccinated before you can travel using public transportation in the future? I.E., fly and take Amtrak, etc.
You might say no, but Quantas has already said they plan for people to show their vaccine card in order to fly once everyone has had the chance to get it.
My feeling is yes. Maybe this time next year we will be talking about how you have to show your "vaccine card" in order to travel.
