Since September 22, Ontarians have been printing out COVID-19 vaccine receipts or saving them to their phones in order to go to restaurants, see a movie, or hit the gym. On October 22, the province is set to launch its vaccine certificate and verification app, which will make receipts available in the form of QR [Quick Response] codes – square barcodes that hold small amounts of data and can be read by smart-phone cameras.
The province is saying the codes will be available for printing or digital storage.
Which is a good answer since not everyone carries around a smart phone. Many people are wondering, will this tool keep my information private?
