Dear all,
I’m presenting a eHealth intervention (COVID-19 ePassport) initiative by the Philippine government that I believe will be useful in the current COVID-19 situation. Moving forward, this will be beneficial in unifying the appearance of an immunization record, and a step towards digitizing records in the Philippines. I uploaded the video on the Google Drive link provided, hopefully the IT of this page will embed there video here.
Let’s create a discussion by replying to this thread!
Best,
Arwin
Hi Arwin,
Thanks for the very clear explanation. Indonesia has a similar system, but because there is a travel requirement for people in the form of a negative PCR test result, ePassports in Indonesia also provide data on the results of the latest PCR examination which is directly inputted by a laboratory registered with the MoH.
Best regards

Thank you for sharing. I agree about the benefits of ePassport that are not limited to only COVID-19. In case of future newly detected infectious diseases, this infrastructure might continue its duty in proving the vaccination in the future.
Thank you for sharing the COVID-19 e-passport implemented by the Philippine government and a clear explanation of how it covers three Domains of health (health in our hands, Interacting for health, Data enabling health).
Thank you for sharing this interesting project.
COVID-19 ePassports is very useful not only for the population in the term of accessibility to their immunization record, but it can also be the database and guideline when there is more communicable disease occur.
Thank you for sharing. ePassport is useful during this pandemic and I agree that it can be applied to other infectious diseases in the future.
