Posted: Thu Jan 30, 2025 8:18 am
"With the rapid introduction of the CovPass app in time for the summer holidays, the federal government has finally made a digital sprint during the corona pandemic . This is a great relief, especially for travelers, but also for all people who want to go to restaurants, cultural events or shopping again. Even if other countries have already been faster: The smartphone app for the digital vaccination certificate is here - and everyone involved deserves praise for that.
What is important now is that the vaccination status can be transferred easily - austria gambling data in as many places as possible and without long queues in front of pharmacies and later also doctor's offices and vaccination centers. However, a purely digital route is missing and would have been a significant relief - for example with an online portal where the certificate can be applied for using the batch number, name, date of birth and vaccination date. Such a variant should be made available in the future. A lot of people are interested in the digital vaccination certificate: Among those who have a smartphone and basically want to be vaccinated, 75 percent say that they want to use the digital vaccination certificate, as we found out in a Bitkom survey in May. They must now be able to download the digital vaccination certificate into the CovPass app quickly and unbureaucratically."
