QR codes still useless

The COVID vaccination registration process in BC strongly emphasized a QR code. Here’s a QR code, don’t forget to bring QR code!

But then the nice lady at my vaccine check-in asks me: “Health number, please?”

“Um, well, I’ve got this QR code all ready for you…”

“No, I need your health number.”

She literally didn’t even have a scanner.

🤔

And here I thought I’d finally get to use a QR code!

(Actually, I do have routine use for QR codes, although it’s very technical and really the only application they’ve ever had in my life: one-time password setup using 1Password.)
