It essentially pulls from a database of your health records, including most if not all medical history you have in BC. Shots, doctors visits, prescriptions, anything where your PHN was used, is accessible through the app. It also apparently updates in real time to when your estimated second shot will be. They're also working to get Lifelabs/BC Bio lab results, so that's probably useful as well.
There's a somewhat silly verification process where you have to send a video of yourself following prompts in the app before you have access, and it takes a few hours to verify because apparently it's all done by humans - but I guess that's a good thing for security.
This stuff is already accessible through the website (with the same verification requirements), so it's not any more of a security risk than what is already online, and if you're worried about big brother spying on your phone, wait until you hear about FB/IG/Tik Tok.
Again, it's just a FYI thing if you're interested - I found it pretty cool. | I told everyone on r/vancouver this last night and got 250+ upvotes. Not sure why you're being ignored here.
Btw you can also login thru this site which also basically tells you what you get to see. I can see all my medical records from 2000 onwards including my COVID shot and the projected 2nd shot date: https://www.healthgateway.gov.bc.ca/ |

got Pfizer yesterday in Coquitlam.
whole thing took 1 hour, longer than i expected.
my appointment was 7:30 but after waiting in line, got my shot little after 8.
funny no one even asked if I had appointment or what.
It was like walk in.
I guess, now that everyone is eligible, they don't care anymore

But now I know who you are on reddit! I saw your post and just thought I'd share, it's actually useful.

I saw one of CB’s post on Reddit too. Think about the Burnaby shooting IIRC. Figured there could only be one.

I got mine today, there weren't any empty stations and there was only a couple people waiting at a time so they seem to have set the flow nicely. My arm is a little sore but that's it so far.
3 of my coworkers aren't getting it for odd reasons as well. "I don't see a benefit to it" and "I don't trust the news". I don't even know how to respond to that.

Haven’t heard that word in a long time. Yes, the Boogaloo was popular back in the day, lol.
I’m just referring to the musical term and not the one used by far right nutjobs.

China is also reporting they have only had 90000 covid cases throughout the whole pandemic so I’ll take numbers about anything to do with this virus coming from them with a grain of salt.
