🎉 Those 💉💉 in 🏴 can now prove their vaccination status using QR codes! FINALLY! The system started yesterday...

But how useful is this to prove vaccination status when travelling anywhere?
This morning @Scroggie and I set about working it out!

🧵
Right now, UK as a whole is *still* not fully in EU Digital COVID Pass scheme - even though it applied at the end of July:

This means that if NHS 🏴 QR codes are to work in other countries, those countries have to unilaterally update their apps

The GOOD NEWS
If you're 💉💉 in 🏴 and have the QR codes, these will ✅ verify in 🇮🇪 Digital COVID Cert checker app.digitalcovidcertchecker.gov.ie and 🇧🇪 CovidScanBE app - 🤖 play.google.com/store/apps/det… and iOS apps.apple.com/us/app/covidsc…

The BAD NEWS
At the moment the NHS 🏴 QR codes DO NOT ❌ verify in 🇫🇷 (TAC Verif), 🇮🇹 (VerificaC19) or 🇩🇪 (CovPassCheck)
(NHS 🏴 and 🏴 QR codes *do* work with TAC Verif and VerificaC19)

As ever
1️⃣ This thread is *only* about the QR code systems that are more useful for proving your vaccine status once *in* a country, than to *get into* a country
2️⃣ Check the entry rules before going anywhere!

3️⃣ I'd expect this situation to change pretty quickly - @alexIholroyd and @AmbColonna will no doubt push for 🇫🇷 TAC Verif to accept NHS 🏴 QR codes ASAP
4️⃣ Advice for 🇩🇪 is hence same for those 💉💉 in 🏴 as 💉💉 in 🏴🏴 - best bet is still to find a pharmacy in 🇩🇪 to issue a 🇪🇺 Digital COVID Pass
If you've tried this with other countries' verifier apps, do let me know what happened and if it worked!
Also note I don't care about whether this works with wallet apps like TousAntiCovid or Corona-Warn-App - those don't matter here

FAO @MrGaryPaterson @AlynSmith @davidmacdougall @ToniGiugliano for the Scottish aspects of this. @parispagesblog @dolmenman1 for the TAC Verif aspects.
And above all DANKE! to @Scroggie for all the help!
