CECC simplifies vaccination status verificationBOOSTER REQUIRED: The booster vaccination rate is just below 50 percent, and most received them recently, so there is no immediate plan for fourth doses, the CECC saidBy Lee I-chia / Staff reporterThe Central Epidemic Command Center (CECC) yesterday updated its application mechanism for entities seeking to verify people’s digital COVID-19 vaccination certification. The station is set to serve as a temporary vaccination station again on Saturday. They would be enabled to scan people’s digital COVID-19 vaccination certificate and immediately see whether the person has received the three doses required, he said. Chuang said people who have been vaccinated in other countries can register their vaccination status with their local health departments and their digital vaccination certificate would be updated accordingly. Meanwhile, the CECC clarified that people need to book an appointment to see a doctor at a contracted clinic before receiving a government-funded at-home rapid COVID-19 test kit.
