WHILE Government is working on a system to generate digital versions of the COVID-19 vaccination card, Health Minister, Dr. Frank Anthony, disclosed that efforts are being made to pursue other methods of digitalising vaccine identification. During his COVID-19 update on Thursday, Dr. Anthony revealed that the Health Ministry is currently in discussion with the Government of India to obtain the country’s CO-WIN platform for vaccination. In an article published, in the Times of India newspaper, India’s Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, announced that the country’s CO-WIN platform for COVID vaccination is being made an open source to any and every country for health interventions across the world. According to the article, the CO-WIN software has been the tech backbone of the country’s vaccination programme. The platform is seen to have delivered in tracking first and second doses scheduling appointments, registering beneficiaries and issuing vaccination certificates that can be linked to passports. Dr. Anthony stated that Guyana has already received confirmation that the software will become available and customised to the needs of the country’s health system. “They have consented to give us a customised version of that software for our use. We are continuing those discussions and, hopefully, as soon as we finalise it, we will be able to move our database into that software,” he said. The Health Minister noted that the software will provide many features that will allow for quick searches and record-keeping.
