The president of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, has announced this morning that her team have finalized a legislative proposal to create a digital certificate that "facilitates movements within the EU and abroad", of those travellers who have been vaccinated against Covid-19, or have a negative test result before travelling.
This means that the head of the EU has given countries, such as Greece and Spain, a kind of "passport" for immunized travellers in order to reactivate tourism after the third wave of the pandemic, despite the fact that on Thursday after a summit with EU leaders she warned that Brussels would work on a certificate for medical use only over the next three months, because there was not enough consensus among the 27 member states to discuss what uses it could be given further.
