COVID Vaccine Passport 16 months ago there was an idea of a ‘digital certificate’ as a means of confirmation of inoculation. Shortly after that announcement, the title was then changed to ‘’vaccine passport’. This change of title started to have questions thrown around in regards to the current situation of flights being halted around the world. Soon after, many countries who managed to contain the virus were ‘worried’ in case the virus would come back to the country. That is when many countries started announcing that in order to re-open the country would be with a successful vaccination program and to have a vaccine passport in action. Today the vaccine passport is all the latest buzz with many for and against the idea, with many countries who have adopted the idea. The apps securely store information about your health such as: COVID-19 vaccinations COVID-19 test results Onsite screening results for fever and other COVID-19 symptoms If you don’t have a smartphone, you may be able to print out a paper vaccine passport from an app’s website that saves your information as a QR code. These codes, which look similar to a square barcode, are not readable by humans.

Through the certificate, the Commission intends to remove travel restrictions as entry bans, quarantine obligation, and testing. The EU Commission has encouraged the Member States to remove the entry restrictions imposed on the freedom of movement since mid-March 2020, for those that hold such a document, starting from July 1, though the members have the option to remove those restrictions earlier, as many already have. Negotiations between the European Union and the U.S. to recognise each other’s vaccination passes are struggling to make headway due to the absence of a federal certification system in America. EU ambassadors were told at a meeting on Thursday that the European Commission is, however, in an advanced stage of talks with the U.K., and in contact with Japan, Australia and Canada. Discussions with Ottawa were described as promising and officials are hoping that the EU’s Covid certificates will be recognised in September when Canada is due to reopen travel to vaccinated non-U.S. travelers, the memo says. https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/other/eu-talks-with-us-on-vaccine-passports-making-little-progress/ar-AAMtgWA Even though England hasn’t officially confirmed anything (yet) the main question being asked is t...
