As of February 1, 2022, new rules come into force providing for a binding acceptance period of nine months for vaccination certificates used for travel within the EU.
Member States must not provide for a different acceptance period for travel within the European Union. The standard acceptance period does not apply to booster dose certificates.
Any measures restricting free movement must be proportionate and non-discriminatory. Member States must not, in principle, refuse entry to persons traveling from other Member States.
The national authorities are responsible for issuing the certificate. It could be issued, for example, by testing centers or health authorities, or directly through an e-health portal.
The digital version can be stored on a mobile device. Citizens can also request a paper version. Both will have a QR code containing essential information, as well as a digital signature to ensure that the certificate is authentic.

Bogota continues to be the main focus of the pandemic, with 1,461,086 cases, followed by Antioquia (766,704), Valle del Cauca (415,384), Atlántico (337,736), Cundinamarca (265,974) and Santander (229,549). On the other hand, as of last Monday, 400,453 people have been vaccinated, of which 105,143 received second doses and 21,050 received the single-dose formula of the pharmaceutical company Janssen.

Scientists are still reviewing data to assess how effective existing vaccines are against the new variant, but Moderna’s CEO warned in an interview with The Financial Times that he believes it will amount to “a material drop.”
The question of whether or not to pull the trigger on mandates, and how to weigh the risk to civil liberties against a serious threat to overburdened healthcare systems, has caused much nervousness around the world, especially in Europe, a proud bastion of liberal democracy.
