The whole world is battling with the Corona Epidemic. The second wave of corona virus is causing havoc. In such a situation, the government is appealing to the people to wear masks and follow social distancing. There is a boom in all countries regarding the Corona Vaccine. The government is also making many offers to people to get the corona vaccine. Now in countries around the world, the government is implementing some rules and regulations for the movement of people from one country to another to prevent infection. Which can stop this corona epidemic from spreading. Now Vaccine Passport will also be made mandatory for travelers to travel in future. When you travel abroad in the future, you will need to have a boarding pass, suitcase, passport as well as a digital vaccination certificate. This law will be implemented so that when people go to other countries for the purpose of traveling or work, they do not have to spend a long time in quarantine there.
Its start and preparations
In this, information about the vaccination status of passengers and the recovery of those infected will be given. On the basis of the certificate, they will be able to travel between EU countries.
The EU certificate will be on the lines of a QR code which will be scanned by the Investigating Officer and the data from the official agency of the traveler’s country will be verified through the EU’s technical gateway for vaccination and infection status
Britain updated the National Health Service app last week, easing travel rules. Through this, the vaccination status of a person can be verified while traveling abroad.
The European Union (EU) is also working on a similar digital certificate. It is expected to be available to citizens of 30 EU member states by the end of June.
China and Japan are preparing to issue their respective certificates for foreign travel.
World Health Organization (WHO) side
The World Health Organization (WHO) is currently not in favor of making proof of vaccination a mandatory document for international travel, arguing for unequal distribution of vaccines. However, he is definitely preparing to formulate interim guidelines regarding the Smart Vaccination Certificate.
challenges in implementation
Already, many different countries are running their own app to treat corona and trace the infected. In such a case, the vaccine passport would be another digital document.
The biggest obstacle is the lack of a centralized international verification system to verify vaccinations. It is very challenging technically for many countries to work together. The challenge is compounded by questions such as discrimination in the name of privacy and vaccines.
