Club Vaccine Passport Update

[baselbear]

So how is this vaccine passport supposed to work? Are we getting an app or do we just need to request paper copy from NHS vacs site or what? Or is everyone gonna get a letter with vaccination proof?

I understand there will be an app but you can get a copy of the PDF on your phone.

The costs of this is a tax on Rangers for doing business in Scotland.

Perhaps the clubs should pass on the costs to the fans with a £2 a game levy and suggest they ask the government to recompense anyone who isn't happy paying.

 

[RFCDUMFRIES]

Not Britain only Scotland

watch the rest of the UK follow very soon.

 

[JW1988]

The update is … there is no update

 

[Orange Peel]

I'm confused, hopefully someone can clarify.

I have downloaded the passport thing from this link https://www.nhsinform.scot/covid-19...-your-coronavirus-covid-19-vaccination-status

So what is the difference between this and the app that isn't being released in 3 days. Is what I've downloaded useless and I still need to go the process of getting this app they have yet to release?

That's what I'm wondering too mate. Thought I had it until I came on here. I used it to get in to Wimbledon in June.

 

[cambridgeblue]

Wales might. England not looking likely.

 

[blueismycolour]

I've just checked mine on my phone that updated last week. I'm double jabbed in England and on the QR code part for the domestic section it says "Valid in England" I don't think that used to be there

Aye, just looked on the link on post 20. For people vaccinated in Scotland, can see trouble ahead for us in England. As well as supporters in Northern Ireland and Wales etc.

And what about supporters that are not double vaccinated. Was being double vaccinated in the terms and conditions when season tickets were bought.

Looking forward to this statement, hope our club as everything covered.

 

[TerrySilverLoyal]

Nice update 4 days before it kicks in with zero thought to those making plans in advance

 

[Valley Bluenose]

I understand there will be an app but you can get a copy of the PDF on your phone.

No idea how it works in Scotland. I'm in Wales and we can't get the QR code displayed on our phones via an App like you can in England. However, we are able to ask for either a 2 day vaccination status certificate or one that's valid for 2 months. Both come via email almost instantaneously with the attachments in .pdf format. You can then screen grab them or just display the attachment on your phone. Or print them out if you choose. Maybe the Scottish App will go down the same route.

In fairness the Welsh one works well, though the process to register for the NHS App was a real ball-ache. Photo ID to be uploaded (took 4 attempts before they accepted one) and you had to record a video of you reciting something they displayed on screen. Nuts.

SNP at its finest

 

[Barrymoped]

I actually think it will be the other way round. I think this will be ditched in a few weeks after they discover it’s unworkable in a practical sense.

 

[Let’s Gio]

I've just checked mine on my phone that updated last week. I'm double jabbed in England and on the QR code part for the domestic section it says "Valid in England" I don't think that used to be there

what’s the app you use for this?

 

[BenVorlich]

It’s been there a wee while, I noticed it about 6 weeks ago.

Aye it’s definitely been there a number of weeks now.
I had word back from my local MP down here a couple of days ago via twitter.
She wants me to give her the full details of what the SNP are proposing. I’ll wait and see the detail from the club before emailing her as she has requested.
It may be that we are not discriminated against because of where we live even if we have had the same double vaccination. Time will tell.

 

[andy17x]

I logged into my appointment portal last week and downloaded a copy of my certificate, there’s two QR codes on them now so I’d imagine there will be spot checks carried out where these may be scanned. Not a chance everyone can have theirs checked upon entry.

From Thursday (when the Scots NHS app is released) this will not be accepted apparently.

 

[Galstonian Oranje]

I think the worst part of it all is the majority of the population running off and downloading their papers and being very proud of it.

Exactly what they wanted all along

Can see you having to pen a Covid Passport FAQ Bumper Thread.

Jeez, the issues some of our 'technically challenged' posters have with RangersTV will pale into insignificance when this kicks-off. I think I will arrange for Admin to give me a two week ban or something ha ha.

 

[Forth Bear]

I never downloaded the COVID-19 app and I won't be downloading the new Scottish NHS app.

 

[Belfastbear]

Reading through this thread and am confused.
In simple terms how does this effect us Ulster bears travelling over on Sunday there is no vaccination passport over here.

 

[Mosschops]

what’s the app you use for this?

The NHS app mate, i think it's only available in England currently. It's NOT the track and trace app

 

[Tpol_rfc]

That's what I'm wondering too mate. Thought I had it until I came on here. I used it to get in to Wimbledon in June.

Clear as mud mate. I know the club are not to blame in this instance but what they have put out is meaningless.

 

[Swing low]

Ye bit how do we know the ST holder uses the ticket for each and every match mate ?

the passport can be the same mate

 

[South Belfast Broxi]

Reading through this thread and am confused.

There is a travel vaccine passport, I have one.

 

[Tpol_rfc]

There's so much speculation. Would help of could put links to anything concrete instead of "apparently".

Not wanting to come across as argumentative here just best to be clear on what's what.

 

[Papasmurf]

The Separatists have 3 days to release the App and for 3 million folk to register on it. You just know that somehow it'll be the Tories fault.

We should all read this first sentence and try not to laugh.

 

[South Belfast Broxi]

Can you use a different turnstile in the same section, other than the one it says on your ticket? Asking for a friend...

 

[ICM]

The club has already expressed concerns, with supporters outside Scotland specifically referenced.

Hopefully common sense can prevail, but it's definitely a large can of worms.

 

[ChildOfGoth]

question I have were the App for Scotland and other nations developed by the same Danish software company ?

 

[ClydebankBear]

i got my vaccination status letter maybe 2 months ago, i called up the NHS covid phone number and they sent it out to me, i also have the PDF version of it to which can be obtained from this link https://vacs.nhs.scot/csp?id=csp_registration once registered properly u can download the PDF version. Hope this helps some

 

[Valley Bluenose]

The wisest thing is probably to wait until the Club put out the promised update. Hopefully later today if they had their meeting this morning.

 

[ItsInTheNet]

So you have to be double jabbed to go watch a football game where the players involved do not have to be vaccinated?

 

[Galstonian Oranje]

So you have to be double jabbed to go watch a football game where the players involved do not have to be vaccinated?

And the stewards, cops, catering staff or anyone else working at the game

 

[AndyWebsterLoyal]

Can you use a different turnstile in the same section, other than the one it says on your ticket? Asking for a friend...

Yes. Any turnstile that goes into your section should work.

 

[Bearsdenloyal]

So you have to be double jabbed to go watch a football game where the players involved do not have to be vaccinated?

They are at work.

If they wanted to go to a different stadium as a fan...

 

[dublinbluenose]

watch the rest of the UK follow very soon.

Northern Ireland is heading in that direction.

 

[Coplandbear]

The whole process is absolutely shambolic and unnecessary.

They'll be war at the turnstiles if fans are refused entry bring it on.

 

[Rab The Bear]

I've just checked mine on my phone that updated last week. I'm double jabbed in England and on the QR code part for the domestic section it says "Valid in England" I don't think that used to be there

I’m double jabbed, 2nd jab was in June, in England and I’m pretty sure the NHS app has always shown as “valid in England”. Planning on travelling up for a couple of games next month so I’m hoping this issue is sorted.

Vaccine passports: How does Scotland's scheme work?

The scheme, which applies to nightclubs and large events, came into effect last year.

www.bbc.co.uk

People who have had two vaccines in Scotland can already download or get a paper copy of a certificate with a QR code.
It is planned that people will be able to access an NHS Scotland Covid Status App from 30 September, which will show a QR code for each vaccination.
Those who cannot use the app will be able to request what the government describes as "a secure, un-editable" paper record. It will have enhanced security features such as thermodynamic ink to prevent forgery, and will also have a QR code.

Covid passports: Where do I still need to use one?

Mandatory Covid passports end in Scotland, as has happened in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.

www.bbc.co.uk

Currently, anyone 16 or over can go online and download a PDF version of their vaccination status showing a unique QR code.
From 30 September, the NHS Scotland Covid Status App will be available, at which point the PDF function will be switched off.

 

[Grommitt]

You're not being asked to share your medical status, just you covid19 vaccination status.

Surely your Covid19 vaccination status is part of your overall medical record, no?

 

[fbshd]

Might be a good time to ask your MPs & MSPs how much has been spent on this Scottish Passport App. Reports over the weekend suggest that the UK is at an advanced stage of utilising the EU vaccine passport App. The Scottish version may never be activated!

FBS

 

[ItsInTheNet]

They are at work.

If they wanted to go to a different stadium as a fan...

Incredible...

 

[Dr Steve Brule]

I'm just a panic merchant, when I fly I always have at least one paper copy of my boarding card to go with the app in case I lose my phone or something.

As the badge says, "Ready".

 

[DrumBear]

Ah well. That's my visits to Ibrox done for the foreseeable future. No more mygers points for me.

 

[tr0211]

A word of warning to those reliant on downloading the paper copy via a PDF. The QR codes generated on there expire the day after you've downloaded it. If stewards have a device to check the QR code, then make sure you download the PDF from NHS Scotland on the morning of the match and save it down to your phone. You'll be alright that way if asked for your papers.

 

[Mason Boyne]

I think the worst part of it all is the majority of the population running off and downloading their papers and being very proud of it.

Exactly what they wanted all along

Will soon be asking each other whats your QR code, just like lodge numbers.

 

[Mason Boyne]

What happens if you don't have a smart phone?

 

[BL-11]

Anyone downloading any Govt App is unknowingly ushering in Digital IDs and social credit scores.

You need to open your eyes to what is going on.

This isn't about health, this is about State coercion to take a vaccine most of us never needed so they can get in their Covid passports which will then evolve to digital IDs and social credit scores and the end of Western liberties and freedoms.

 

[Barca Bear]

So how is this vaccine passport supposed to work? Are we getting an app or do we just need to request paper copy from NHS vacs site or what? Or is everyone gonna get a letter with vaccination proof?

its better to have it.
there might be other, non football occasions where it could be required in the future.
i needed one to get into wembley or no access.
did it on nhs scot web and got it two days by post.

 

[Billy_Boyce]

Question. Do the stewards, pigs and pie stall workers have to be double jabbed to work there?

 

[CoopBlue]

Question. Do the stewards, pigs and pie stall workers have to be double jabbed to work there?

From what I understand, no.
