&quot;Chinese President Xi Jinping has called for a &quot;global mechanism&quot; that would use QR codes to open up international travel.<p>&quot;We need to further harmonise policies and standards and establish &#x27;fast tracks&#x27; to facilitate the orderly flow of people,&quot; he said.<p>&quot;The codes will be used to help establish a traveller&#x27;s health status.&quot;<p>Yikes, what could possibly go wrong here?<p>That&#x27;s a resounding no from me.
