Virginians have a new digital option for proving that they’ve been vaccinated against COVID-19.

The Virginia Department of Health announced Thursday that it has added barcodes that can be scanned with smartphones known as QR codes to state COVID-19 vaccination records.

People can prove they’ve been vaccinated by showing a digital or printed QR code instead of a paper card and they won’t need a special app.

Anyone vaccinated in Virginia can get their free vaccination record with QR code, which can be saved to a phone gallery or printed out.

Because they are digitally signed by the Department of Health, officials say they can’t be altered or forged.

Businesses and employers can use a free app to scan the codes.
