Link to form that needs to be filled out within 48 hours of flight to Israel

Accordingly, the FINAL criteria For entering Israel are as follows - you must meet ONE of these conditions in order to enter Israel:

1. Vaccinated within 180 days of the trip with either a second vaccine or a booster and it must be at least 14 days after the shot.

2. Recovered within 180 days of the trip with DIGITAL proof of a positive PCR result and more than 11 days have passed since the positive result. This type of proof only exists in the EU. The UK will likely have it as well.

3. Recovered anytime – even more than 180 days before the trip - with DIGITAL proof of positive PCR result AND vaccinated with at least one dose within 180 days of the trip. Again at the moment the digital proof only exists in the EU and possibly the UK shortly.

Your vaccination or recovery CANNOT expire while in Israel, which means you may not be in Israel more than 180 days after your vaccine or recovery have expired.

CONSEQUENCES FOR VIOLATING THE TERMS OF ENTRY: VIOLATION OF ANY OF THE ABOVE CRITERIA CAN MEAN SANCTIONS INCLUDING BARRING YOUR ENTRY TO ISRAEL FOR 5 YEARS.

What do they accept as proof? Do they allow anyone else in?
Their new policy is to accept anyone from any country as long as they can prove they have been vacinated. IMHO it's a big mistake due to the photoshop vaccination centers.

In my personal opinion there's a HUGE opportunity here for good blockchain technology to be implemented on this. The biggest challenge would be to get governments and world organizations to agree on a single avenue for this, but I think it's the only way to go.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Who needs blockchain? I imagine there are already shared/public databases/platforms for stuff like this. E.g. for standard passports.

Every data sharing element is negotiated by complex treaties, it wouldn't be easy at all to extend it to covid data, though it's another example of human failure in fighting the virus.

Agree 100%, though none of that has to do with pros/cons of blockchain in this context.

Yeah, Blockchain is just another technological means. A centralized database or hourly blasts would work the same way.

I just had a conversation about this with one of the people behind Ethereum.

Here are some snippets from his comments:

Quote
...working on a project that will enable this type of thing

[after some back and forth about details where I mentioned photoshop labs, and suggested that each local jurisdiction just decide what they want to accept, he wrote to me]

essentially its just attestations from authorities
its a simple blockchain thing
... I'm building a generalized attestation system where anyone can attest to anything it would be great for something like this it would be up to the authorities to check that the attestation is from an authorized entity...
...only valid ones will matter
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

On Israeli MoH vaccination certificates there is a QR code, which when scanned delivers some kind of long encrypted key. My guess is that the plan is to provide authorities with a dedicated app to check that the qr code corresponds to the person.

If that's the case then it's easy to give access to airlines agents etc, imho
