It links 'name' to 'vaccination details'. I can imagine you would want to prevent that link. If you cannot hide 'name', because you need that for identification, you could hide 'vaccination details', for example by linking 'name' to 'is properly vaccinated?'. No need to specify what vaccin gotten where and when in how many doses. The signed-certificate part could still be present, as a tampering protection.

> I can imagine you would want to prevent that link. This very likely is a subjective matter. I absolutely would want my name to be associated to my vaccination details, and will certainly do when it will be my turn to get the shot (still have high antibodies level after catching symptomatic Covid months ago).

  Yes, I can understand for registering who has been vaccinated and when, it is necessary to combine these pieces of data. The part I am worried about is, do I want to give anybody and everybody access to this information, or only a select group which is in my control. Do I want to share my full Google/Facebook account, with password, with everybody that I show a QR-code to (for example a 'Login with Facebook' button), or do I want to be selective and only allow for 'verify and give permission to access part of profile'? Do I want to share my full contacts list with a random app I installed from an app store, just because I started it? Or do I want to be selective and deny 'access to contacts' for a game which has no business looking through my contacts.

    I understand your point. It's probably a grey area in which the need for surrounding people to feel safe outweighs the risk of someone accessing this data and using them against us. Also, any discrimination based on that data would also be against the law. Having been infected with Covid19, and subsequently hospitalized for nearly 2 months in a Covid ward after a road accident [0], I've seen scenes of death and panic, but also negligence from denialists, therefore I believe it's our responsibility to be as much clear as possible with information so that they know what is going on and can feel safe thanks to correct information and not by ignoring the problem. 0: (I beat symptomatic Covid at home, then tested negative, then after 3 weeks had a road accident and the mandatory ER triage swab told I was positive again, although this time with no symptoms).

The entire purpose of this thing is to link those two pieces of data. If you remove that link, there is no point to having anything.

  'Those pieces of data' is very vague. Do you want to know if somebody has been properly vaccinated (isFullyVaccinated), or against what, with what, when, where and how many times?

    Why is that vague? The data is perfectly explained in the linked article.
