The National Health Information Centre had issued more than 71,000 new universal digital certificates confirming COVID-19 vaccinations by Tuesday morning. Anyone who has been vaccinated has been eligible as of Monday to ask the centre for a certificate, which is a temporary measure and will be valid until August 11. It is then expected to be replaced by the EU's digital green certificate. The Foreign Affairs Ministry should now report on what countries will accept the Slovak temporary certificate. The digital document is not identical to the one that people receive following inoculation in vaccination centres.
