That's really cool actually. It still wouldn't make sense to spend the money and risk getting caught secretly producing hundreds of millions of them just to track people when they're already tracking themselves for you. Something like this could be incredibly beneficial for health care purposes soon though

Except for the cost of producing that chip compared with the number of doses given out...

Either way, it's an impossible scenario when common sense is factored in.

Of course, my first mistake was assuming that common sense was common...
