OMA members support COVID-19 vaccination certificate

The Ontario Medical Association wants to see a government-issued COVID-19 vaccination certificate.

The OMA says a secure and verifiable document will help businesses, employers and others know their customers, employees, colleagues and others have been fully vaccinated against COVID-19.

An OMA survey released today found that 93 per cent of Ontario doctors who responded favour some sort of COVID vaccination certificate.

An OMA media release says the vaccination certificate, often called a "passport," could be an electronic certificate with a paper option for those without computers.
