Indonesian officials have asked its nation's citizens to stop leaking their own personal data on social media by sharing pictures of certificates attesting to their receipt of COVID-19 vaccinations.
In a Tuesday press conference, Indonesia’s COVID-19 task force spokesman Wiku Adisasmito explained that the certificates include a QR code that, when scanned, can yield personal medical data.
Adisasmito explained the possible consequences of data leakage at a Tuesday press conference.
Adisasmito also described Indonesia's COVID-19 outlook and response in positive terms. Although a 2.3 per cent increase in cases was recorded this week, it comes after four consecutive weeks of decline, he said.
