Provision of options and recommendations for an EU citizen’s vaccination card
Publication metadata
Within the scope of this study, we evaluated three approaches for the EVC. At one end of the spectrum, we proposed a citizen centric, or ‘bottom-up’ system (the autonomous template), and at the opposing end a health-system-centric or ‘top-down’ system (the minimalistic template). The large-scale survey showed a slight preference of European citizens for the minimalistic template, closely followed by the autonomous template, while the intermediate (collaborative) template was clearly a distant third. However, our recommendation is for the citizen centric approach, for the following reasons: - 1. We consider the empowerment of citizens to be of high importance, particularly within the context of tackling vaccine hesitancy. Moreover, such empowerment was central to the study. - 2. As described after our analysis of the existing cards and IIS, the EU card should rather come as a complement to existing VCs rather than as a substitute - it can therefore be geared to and reinforce the personal purpose while existing solutions mostly address the medical and administrative purposes.
