An Open Letter To The Vaccination Credential Initiative.

 

TO: The VCI™ Steering Group -- Mayo Clinic, MITRE Corporation, Microsoft, The Commons Project Foundation, Evernorth, CARIN Alliance, UC San Diego Health, Apple

Dear Sirs/Madams:

You have made an inappropriate and ill-considered decision to remove MyIR:

from your list of valid SMART Health Card issuers:

https://vci.org/updates/october-25th-2021

As you know, MyIR has become the official recordkeeper for the immunization records stored by eight governmental organizations (Arizona, DC, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, North Dakota, Washington, West Virginia), representing over 31 million people. So you are, in effect, denying those people the opportunity to obtain the SMART Health Cards that would enable them to safely return to work, school and travel.

Please reconsider.

Sincerely,
Alan C. Baird
