The representative of the Ministry of Public Security stated 5 causes of delay and difficulty in verifying vaccination information.
According to Minister Long, the issue of data connection and authentication of vaccination and medical information is not only important in issuing vaccine passports, but also helps manage the health of the entire population.
Vaccination facilities and localities must finish verifying vaccination information before June 1, including correcting people’s vaccination information, synchronizing it with the national population database.
In addition, the Minister assessed that the rate of third dose vaccination was too slow, with vaccinations for children 5-11 years old only reaching more than one million shots in nearly a month.
The Ministry of Health is verifying Covid-19 vaccination data on the National Vaccination System and issuing vaccine passports to those with fully confirmed vaccination information.
