The tracking teleservice “Covid Vaccine” was closed by Health Insurance on June 28; until September 2, 2024, it is still possible to download vaccination certificates, after which they will be saved on a secure database for 30 years, but more difficult to access. However, it is a document necessary for any legal procedure, in particular to declare side effects.
During the health crisis, it was essential to be able to prove your vaccination status to do this or that, particularly to combat the spread of the virus, we were told. Now, “this period is over”, as Health Insurance points out in an article dated June 21, 2024, it would seem that there is no longer much need for monitoring. So, we are closing the “Covid Vaccine” online service, “designed to facilitate the management of vaccination campaigns” and allowing certificates to be obtained.
The problem is that if we no longer need to show our credentials to go to a restaurant, we may need vaccination certificates to go to court. If you want to report side effects, for example, you have to be able to prove that you have been vaccinated.
One wonders whether the French health authorities are not trying to get out of the loop while there is still time. Now that the virus has passed and the vaccines have expired, without even five years having passed, the message is clear: “It's over. Move along, there's nothing to see.” Except that monitoring side effects could potentially take several decades, especially since mRNA technology is new. And, according to the information contained in a document that we were able to consult, the list of potential side effects caused by the Pfizer vaccines is eight pages long. In theory, caution is therefore advised.
In any case, the “Vaccination Certificate” online service will remain open until September 2, 2024, so that anyone can request such a document. “The practitioner can advise the patient to save them in the vaccination record of My Health Space to find them easily,” says the gentle Ameli.
