Re: International Effects of Covid-19

These "vaccination certificates" are still a very gray area I would think. Who will issue them? People who have already been vaccinated have some record of it? How easy will they be to forge? People who have received Chinese and Russian vaccines are indefinitely locked out of Europe? :shrug:
