MORNE Posted October 7, 2021 Share 2 minutes ago, Robbie Stewart said: I was thinking the very same thing and knowing how "efficient" people are at their jobs when it pertains to mass processing of humans, I am going to go all-in and say no-one is going to check either. Which proves how much a sham this whole business is. I spent a week in Holiday-Inn Netcare last week and had to undergo 2x tests - one PCR, one 24h - both negative, all so that I could go to a "green zone" ward which allowed visitors once daily between 3pm and 4pm. No visitor testing is done at all... We had a baby in hard lockdown last year. My wife had to get tested every single time she left the hospital and went home and needed to go back before the big day. I never had to get tested even once. As her doc said....doesn't make sense AT ALL lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We booked for 9am and when we got here the 8am crowd hadn’t gone in yet. #slowstart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we used mine to download all of our cards. The functionality to check the validity via the QR code isn't in place either, if I'm not mistaken.

ChrisF Posted October 7, 2021 Share 1 hour ago, MORNE said: it is. Got mine off the site last night as mentioned already https://vaccine.certificate.health.gov.za Morne we also downloaded it .... to only later learn this IS just a test phase, and step one of a longer process to deliver an electronic vaccination certificate up to "international standards". And THIS is where the fun starts, as there are no "international standards", not yet. There are WHO guidelines though .... ours needs to step up a bit before it will be internationally accepted. Punchline - the current SA electronic card is not worth downloading .... wait until about end November. JA, was also miffed to hear this. For more details on this, follow Mia Malan on Twitter.
