(Natural News) The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation helped fund a study that aims to record a patient’s vaccination history by injecting dye under the skin.
Researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) developed a novel way to record a patient’s vaccination history. It was by storing data in a pattern of dye delivered under the skin at the same time as the vaccine.
In a December 2019 news release by MIT, the researchers suggested that the method was developed mainly to aid poor countries where traditional medical records are rare or do not exist. According to the MIT news release, the goal is for the dye to be “delivered under the skin at the same time as the vaccine.”
People are going to be vaccinated, quite literally, with a vaccine passport. The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic may have revealed the true purpose of the specialized dye as talks of using vaccine passports and making COVID-19 vaccines mandatory continue to gain ground in the U.S. and elsewhere.

Before the pandemic, vaccination campaigns in developing nations were made more difficult by little infrastructure for storing medical records. There’s no easy way to determine who needs a particular vaccine.
“In areas where paper vaccination cards are often lost or do not exist at all, and electronic databases are unheard of, this technology could enable the rapid and anonymous detection of patient vaccination history to ensure that every child is vaccinated,” Kevin McHugh, a former MIT postdoc and co-lead author of the study, said at the time.
The study was published in Science Translational Medicine on Dec. 18, 2019.
