In addition to providing a digital copy of your driver’s license LA Wallet now offers the ability to store a copy of your COVID vaccine card. Governor Edwards said it’s optional and free of charge.
“It’s a secure way to access your own personal health information,” said Edwards.
Edwards said users can be assured their health information is protected with the LA Wallet and the ability to have a copy of your vaccine status in the application is ideal for residents who tend to misplace things.
“And I’ve enjoyed seeing how excited people get about receiving their COVID vaccine card but inevitably some of us are going to lose them,” said Edwards.
If you don’t have a smartphone, you also have the option to receive a printed copy of your vaccine records from a parish health unit or any provider that administers vaccines and uses the LINKs system.
LA Wallet launched in 2018 to provide a digital copy of your driver’s license. Edwards said the additional feature for your vaccine status is completely voluntary.
“And if someone wants to have a digital of their vaccination record, they should be able to do that easily and at no cost which is what this optional feature at LA Wallet allows,” said Edwards.
The LA Wallet app is free and available for download on the Apple App and Google Play stores.
