Australians can add proof of COVID vaccinations to Apple Wallet

Australia: once you’ve received two doses of your COVID-19 vaccine (either AstraZeneca or Pfizer), a “COVID-19 digital certificate” will be available in your Medicare online account at my.gov.au as a PDF, or via the Express Plus Medicare app on iOS or Android, notes Tap Down Under. This is to provide you with proof of vaccination.

Tap Down Under notes that (this is separate to your immunization history. The certificate only shows COVID-19 vaccination information. 

Plus, you can add a copy of your COVID-19 digital certificate to the Apple Wallet. Tap Down Under explains how to do this in its article.

In can you’re not familiar with it, Apple Wallet is a mobile app included with the iOS and iPad operating systems.
