HEADLINE: Vaccinated fans allowed in stands at this year's CPL

 
CaribbeanCricket.com 2021-04-29 12:01:35 

The 2021 Caribbean Premier League will be hosted entirely at Warner Park in St. Kitts, beginning on August 28.

The 33-match tournament will allow fans to attend at up to 50 per cent capacity of the 8,000-seat venue – as long as they show proof of vaccination to enter the stadium facility. However, CPL chief executive Pete Russell said that not all players would be required to be vaccinated in order to take part, in light of varying vaccine access to overseas players in particular.

“We’re aware that we need to get people vaccinated where possible,” Russell said during a press conference on Tuesday.

“That’s not always going to be the case but that is a process that we’re undergoing right now whether it’s [those] working for the CPL or playing [who] will be vaccinated. But it’s not a requirement that they’ll be vaccinated because there will be quarantine options as well.

I participate in a WhatsApp group chat for my old high school in Barbados. One of the guys in the chat posted about fake CDC vaccination cards for sale in NYC. He said he knows one guy in NYC who has a CDC card even though he has not been vaccinated. The same guy, who is taking a wait and see approach regarding vaccination, also said that he may get a fake CDC card before traveling to home because Barbados now only requires a one day quarantine for vaccinated people. Arriving passengers are tested upon arrival and vaccinated individuals can leave quarantine the next day if the PCR test comes back negative.

NYS has an electronic COVID Vaccination Passport App that validates you were actually vaccinated! wink

If you are vaccinated and have a CDC card, you know that it would not be too difficult to make forgeries. I like the idea of a vaccine passport, but I do not know exactly how they work. I suspect that such passports are only possible if the vaccination database is made available by the state in which you are vaccinated.

I agree that it is despicable. Even more despicable is the DeSantis decision to ban vaccine passports, which makes it more difficult if not impossible to detect forgeries here in Florida.
