| In today’s world dominated by the pandemic, vaccination is considered intrinsic for protection, but not everyone is willing to follow the rules set by governments of various countries. One of the reasons why people may prefer to circumvent such rules is the possibility of adverse effects, and some individuals may have reasonable grounds for this stance. | | In today’s world dominated by the pandemic, vaccination is considered intrinsic for protection, but not everyone is willing to follow the rules set by governments of various countries.

| One such new rule includes the issuance of a green pass, a type of document that can be issued in paper or digital form certifying that the holder has either received the Covid-19 vaccination, recovered from Covid-19 disease, or taken a swab test (PCR or Rapid Antigen test) with a negative result, conducted no more than 72 or 48 hours earlier, depending on the case. | | One such new rule includes the issuance of a green pass, a type of document that can be issued in paper or digital form certifying that the holder has either received the Covid-19 vaccination, recovered from Covid-19 disease, or taken a swab test (PCR or Rapid Antigen test) with a negative result, conducted no more than 72 or 48 hours earlier, depending on the case. |

| The green pass is taken very seriously everywhere, especially in Italy. If we take into consideration the letter of the Italian Privacy Guarantor addressed to the Parliament, he questions whether the green pass could be used to avoid periodic covid testing, which could result in the circumvention of general public health measures.<br> Since there is no verification that the information contained in the certificate is current, if the health status of the holder changes, it will not be reflected in the document. Therefore, as maintained by the Italian Guarantor, the data included in the pass cannot be fully trusted, and because holding a green pass should not be a safe haven for its holders, it appears unfair that individuals holding a green pass with extended expiration date following vaccination, are exempted from periodic medical checks. | | The green pass is taken very seriously everywhere, especially in Italy.

| The Italian Guarantor is also concerned about issues pertaining to data protection in relation to the green pass holder’s clinical condition or personal choices regarding vaccination. Considering the fact that the green pass contains information regarding the basis upon which the holder received it (either by receiving a swab test, recovering from Covid-19, or vaccination) and an expiration date, information concerning the holder's health status can easily be deduced, however much one tries to conceal this information. | | The Italian Guarantor is also concerned about issues pertaining to data protection in relation to the green pass holder’s clinical condition or personal choices regarding vaccination.
