Luckily, Americans who want a digital vaccination record now have more ways than ever to get one.

“Identity proofing and verification is the first step in addressing this issue and many others where we have to rely on paper.”Īirside Mobile is just one of a handful of technology companies offering modern solutions to age-old travelers’ conundrums. “The root cause of this paper-first orientation is due to the general lack of verified digital identity that is accurate and secure,” explains Amena Ali, CEO of Airside Mobile. That leaves Americans still relying on paper vaccination records from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention - an analog solution that can be lost or easily faked, and which requires human scrutiny to confirm authenticity. The Biden administration has declined to get behind a national vaccination verification app here in the United States, and the topic of vaccine passports is a political hot potato, with 15 Republican-leaning states limiting or banning vaccine passports via legislation or governors’ executive orders. Anyone road-tripping across the United States will likely encounter more than one restaurant, entertainment venue or sports stadium that requires proof of vaccination as a condition for entry. But digital verification is becoming more commonplace at home, too.
