To clarify—the most humane, least risky use case that would satisfy these desiderata would be have a modular system where we
Verify off-site that DanArmak is vaccinated (or has allergies, or a heart condition, or is immunocompromised)
Verify on-site that you’re DanArmak
Give the user the option of sharing information with the state or local health department so they can contact you or your physician about virus exposure (not just covid), food poisoning, whatever.
This could be widely adapted to a variety of situations, depending on how rigorous one wants to be about verifying someone’s ID.
If we DO stick with apps, the best approach might be to give everyone a QR code (including those who haven’t gotten vaccinated or tested). Separately, provide multiple options for verifying the codes (strict verification of ID, census of how many people are vaccinated once capacity is exceeded, etc)
Looks like some people may already be moving in this direction.

Again, easier to implement if the software is open source.
