Geneva –\u00a0 The World Health Organization (WHO) will use the European Union’s digital COVID pass as a basis for a global health certification system, according to a new partnership deal agreed Monday (5).<\/p>\n

WHO chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus and EU health commissioner Stella Kyriakides signed what they described as a “landmark” agreement in Geneva.<\/p>\n

“The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the value of digital health solutions in facilitating access to health services,” Tedros said at the signing ceremony.<\/p>\n

He said the EU’s COVID certificate would now be transformed into “a global public good”, as a first step in the creation of a global digital health certification network.<\/p>\n

The network will expand to include things like digitised international routine vaccination cards, he said.<\/p>\n

It will be aimed to help protect people from health threats, including possible future pandemics, and facilitate global mobility, the WHO and the EU said in a statement.<\/p>\n

This “will be an important part of our efforts to strengthen health systems and to support our member states to prepare better for the next epidemic or pandemic,” Tedros said.<\/p>\n

“The network could also play a crucial role in cross-border humanitarian situations by ensuring people have access to their health records and credentials as they move across borders due to conflict, the climate crisis and other emergencies.”<\/p>\n

The EU COVID certificate, made available on paper or digitally, has been used by travellers moving around inside the bloc to show their COVID vaccination or test status.<\/p>\n
