did you know that we had vaccine passports to travel between states in Australia -- in 1913

"Individuals traveling to other states of the Commonwealth were required to produce a ‘certificate of successful vaccination issued by the Department of Public Health of a State’ on demand of a quarantine officer. The Regulations required the ‘successful vaccination’ must have been within the past five years.
Any person who travelled interstate from Sydney, and who could not produce a vaccination certificate, could be ordered into quarantine by a Commonwealth quarantine officer. If a person in quarantine was successfully vaccinated they could be released under ‘quarantine surveillance’. They were obligated to report to federal quarantine officers or relevant state public health officers as directed.
The penalty for breaching these regulations was up to £50, in a time when the minimum wage was £2.10.0 per week so the maximum penalty was 20 weeks of the minimum wage. The National Minimum Wage is currently $772.60 per week, so an equivalent fine now would be $15,452."
