COPENHAGEN: The Danish government has launched its new digital "corona passport", an app named Coronapas, in a bid to facilitate travel within the European Union (EU) this summer. Developed by the Ministry of Health, the Danish Health Data authority, Statens Serum Institut (SSI) and the Danish Agency for digitisation, Coronapas documents information about test results and vaccinations in both Danish and English. "Coronapas can be used to travel in Europe from July 1. It will apply within the EU as official evidence that you have either been tested negative, vaccinated or are immune because you have been infected," Finance Minister Nicolai Wammen said at a joint press conference here on Friday. "We are not meant to use it forever. There is no doubt that we will have to use it over the summer, but it is of course something that must be phased out," said Minister for Health Magnus Heunicke.
