United Kingdom: Are you coming back from abroad? The test you do it in video call
Brits returning from vacation could be forced to take COVID tests in a live video call with "health counselors" to prove they are not lying about the result. A new healthcare frontier, but it is not known how much this is a real step forward.
Dual vaccinated travelers returning to the UK will be able to forgo a PCR test in favor of a cheaper lateral flow swab, also because it is done independently. But the government is "concerned that those who carry out the tests may lie about the results".
To prevent this from happening, the health minister "proposes to travelers to perform the lateral flow test during video calls under the supervision of a health consultant of a private company," reports the Mail.
The change is expected to be implemented on 25 October.
As we highlighted earlier, Australia has implemented an even more draconian scheme that requires its citizens to provide the police with geo-traceable selfies to prove they are home. As part of a pilot quarantine program in Victoria, Australians will receive random phone calls from the government to be answered "within five minutes with a selfie sent to an app which will then geolocate where that person is and to make sure they are also who they say. to be. "
If they refuse to do so, health authorities will "knock on their door," according to a 9 News report.
Technology is coming to a level of personal control never seen before, even as extreme invasiveness. There is really something to worry about in this dystopian nightmare where everyone is required to be controllable and contactable at almost any time.
