Swedish Epicenter, a specialist in subdermal microchips, has demonstrated an implant capable of storing information about a person’s Covid passport.
APnews: The company says the implanted chip will be able to read any device that uses the Near Field Communication (NFC) protocol.“Implants are a very versatile technology that can be used for a variety of purposes, and now it is very helpful to have your Covid passport at your fingertips. If your phone runs out of battery, the Covid passport will always be available,” company representative Hannes Sjoblad.
According to the researcher of digital cultures Moa Petersen, at the moment in Sweden, about 6 000 people have already implanted a chip in their hand,
but this does not mean that they all loaded their Covid passports there. The chips can store not only certificates, but also office documents, bus passes or gym membership.
