Ticketmaster Planning on Checking Your COVID Status Before Shows

Well this seems a bit invasive for a concert or a show. The numbers have constantly been going up among COVID-19 cases, day by day. While a lot of things are still put on pause, there is some type of normalcy going on, where shows and concerts are resuming, with restrictions. But now that we hear that a coronavirus vaccine has a 90% efficiency rate, according to Pfizer, Ticketmaster has plans on dealing with how they conduct their concerts. According to Billboard, Ticketmaster is planning on verifying a concertgoer's vaccine statue before issuing a concert pass. Things are still in the planning process, they Ticketmaster is working on this post-pandemic situation to make sure fans are staying safe. So here is how it may work. Ticketmaster has been working on a framework that uses smart phones to verify fans' vaccination status or whether they've tested negative for the coronavirus within a 24 to 72 hour window and will rely on 3 separate components, like the Ticketmaster digital ticket app, third party health information companies like CLEAR Health Pass or IBM's Digital Health Pass and testing and vaccine distribution providers like your small pharmacy clinics. Is that too much to enjoy a show?
