Following the announcement that the Ministry of Health (MoH) is launching a digital vaccination certificate on the Immune App, the Director of the Information Systems Department and the Center for Technological Advancement at the Ministry of Health, Eng. Ahmed Al-Gharib, specified the conditions for receiving the certificate in the various stages leading to full immunization, Al Rai daily reported.
- A person who received two doses.
- An infected person received one dose within 3 to 6 months.
- The person received one dose and 5 weeks have passed, however, complete immunization is only possible after the second dose.
To prevent all forms of fraud and tampering with the vaccination certificate, the vaccination batch number, the site where the person received the vaccination, and the passport number will be added to the certificate. The certificate is especially pertinent as some countries have begun to ask travelers for a PCR test certificate, a vaccination certificate, or one of them.
In addition, health sources told Al-Rai that granting a vaccination certificate through the app to those who received the first dose is now part of a routine procedure for providing proof when needed, but the certificate will be fully activated only after the recipient receives two doses of the vaccine.
In related news, the pace of the vaccination campaign has accelerated at record rates in the past few days. The sources expected that if such progress proceeds at the current speed, 1.5 million recipients may be vaccinated before the Eid al-Fitr holiday.
