Answer
Public Heath Scotland publish a weekly COVID-19 statistical report every Wednesday which includes this information.
As at 15 November 2021 the:
- COVID Status app had been downloaded over 1.5 million; and separately
- vaccination status letter has been requested in paper copies 478,014 times; and
- downloaded in PDF format over 1.2 million times.
A single user may choose to download the App or PDF on multiple devices, and may request a replacement of paper copies so it is not currently possible to identify the total number of people who have obtained proof overall.
