Even as the omicron variant loosens its grip on the world, destinations continue to require travelers to show proof of vaccination. And, increasingly, a paper CDC vaccination card is not cutting it. While the United States government has not issued a federal digital vaccine pass, a national standard has nevertheless emerged<\/a>.<\/p>\n

To date, 21 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico offer accessibility to the SMART Health Card, a verifiable digital proof of vaccination developed through the Vaccination Credential Initiative (VCI), a global coalition of public and private stakeholders including Microsoft, Salesforce, Oracle, the Mayo Clinic and other health and tech heavyweights.<\/p>\n

And very soon, at least four more states will be rolling out access to SMART Health Cards. \u201cWe\u2019ve seen a notable uptick in states that have officially launched public portals where individuals can get verifiable vaccination credentials in the form of SMART Health Cards with a QR code,\u201d says Dr. Brian Anderson, co-founder of the VCI and chief digital health physician at MITRE.<\/p>\n

There is already an impressively widespread availability of SMART Health Cards in the U.S. More than 200 million Americans can now download, print or store their vaccination records as a QR code.<\/p>\n

Several Republican-leaning states that had rejected so-called vaccine passports over fears they limited freedom are now embracing the technology behind them.<\/a><\/p>\n

At least five states with bans on \u201cpassports\u201d or governor opposition to them \u2014 Arizona, Mississippi, South Carolina, Oklahoma and Utah \u2014 are developing or have already rolled out the technology. But they\u2019re largely doing it quietly and for slightly different reasons.<\/p>\n
