What is the digital vaccination certificate and what do I need it for?
More and more people are being vaccinated against the coronavirus, and relief apply to them.In many cases, fully vaccinated can do without a test that makes our everyday life more secure in many places - for example, in order to be able to enter shops or restaurants, in zoos and museums or for visiting the nursing home.Because the risk of infecting someone else is significantly lower than in people with a negative quick test result.
You can prove your vaccination with the usual yellow vaccination pass.It is more practical to have stored the proof in private cell phone and to be able to show at any time.For this, the digital vaccination certificate was introduced.

A corresponding app must be installed on your cell phone-the Covpass app or the Corona Warn app.
When they are vaccinated, the vaccination is entered in their yellow "analog" vaccination passport as usual.
In addition-and this offer is voluntary and in addition-a so-called "2D barcode" is created for you, for example in the doctor's office, for you, for example in the doctor's office.
You can scan the barcode with your smartphone.You can also take it with you as a paper expression and later scan it in peace at home.The Corona Warn app or the Covpass app then stores this vaccination certificate locally on your smartphone.
If you need a vaccination certificate - for example in the restaurant - you can simply show the vaccination certificate stored on your smartphone.
