The Biden White House released a statement on Wednesday, stating outright that the current regime was dedicated to declarations made by leaders at the G20 conference that would see an increased use of Covid-19 digital identification.
Under the 23rd section of the statement, the White House says that it acknowledges the importance of "shared technical standards and verification methods," and specifically states that it will seek to build on the "success" of existing standards and digital Covid-19 certificates.
"We acknowledge the importance of shared technical standards and verification methods, under the framework of the IHR (2005), to facilitate seamless international travel, interoperability, and recognizing digital solutions and non-digital solutions, including proof of vaccinations. We support continued international dialogue and collaboration on the establishment of trusted global digital health networks as part of the efforts to strengthen prevention and response to future pandemics, that should capitalize and build on the success of the existing standards and digital COVID-19 certificates," it states.
Recently, the B20 summit called on the G20 to adopt a global framework to track the vaccination status of individuals via a digital framework.
Indonesian health minister Budi Gunadi Sadikin called upon the G20 to use standards set by the World Health Organization (WHO) to "improve global health architecture."
Indonesian President Joko Widodo called on countries to fund his Pandemic Fund, which they say will be used to create a vaccination framework, reports Tempo.
"I express my gratitude for (countries') contributions to the Pandemic Fund. And by saying in the name of God, I am launching the Pandemic Fund today," he said.
So far, $1.4 billion has been raised from 15 countries and three philanthropic institutions. Australia, France, and Saudi Arabia have all expressed their commitments to the fund.
"I thank donors from G20 and non-G20 member countries, as well as from philanthropic institutions which have contributed. However, the funds raised are still insufficient. I expect for even greater support for this Pandemic Fund," he said, as the funds currently raised are not enough to create the desired framework. One WHO study said that it would require $31 billion annually to create a framework that would "prevent future pandemics."
