ICYMI: A Swedish company has created a microchip that allows users to carry their COVID vaccine passport under their skin

Self-described"body hacker" Jowan Osterlund from Biohax Sweden, holds a small microchip implant, similar to those implanted into workers at the Epicenter digital innovation business centre during a party at the co-working space in central Stockholm.A Swedish start-up has created scannable digital implants that display one's COVID vaccine passport.When the implant is scanned with a smartphone, one's COVID-19 vaccination details and test results can be viewed via a PDF.

"I have a chip implant in my arm, and I have programmed the chip so that I have my COVID passport on the chip, and the reason is that I always want to have it accessible," Hannes Sjoblad, managing director of Dsruptive Subdermals, told theSjoblad demonstrated for the AFP how it was possible to scan the chip with his phone to bring up a PDF that showed all the details of hisa pass somewhat similar to the US's vaccine card.

"If you understand how these implants work, they don't have a battery. They cannot transmit a signal by themselves. So they are basically passive. They sit there asleep," Sjoblad said. "They can never tell your location, they're only activated when you touch them with your smartphone, so this means they cannot be used for tracking anyone's location."Sjoblad told Insider in an email that the implant does not need to be removed in order to be updated.
