Clear, the company that developed the paid biometric ID service that helps speed travelers through the airport and stadiums, is expanding to offer coronavirus screening. “
Health Pass by
Clear will allow employees, consumers, and travelers to connect their identity with a health check that employers, business owners, restaurants, airlines, and hotels can use to screen those who enter
their premises or use their services,” according to Afar. “Users can verify their identity on their phone with biometrics, including a facial scan or a fingerprint. They then
answer some health questions and can upload their lab results or link to a test provider to offer evidence of a COVID-19 negative test result. The plan is to evolve the pass so that it could also
integrate technology that would be able to do temperature checks, and once a vaccine is developed for COVID-19, users would also be able to confirm that they have been vaccinated.”advertisement
