Jamaica went live with DIVOC in December 2021. It was implemented by Jamaica's Ministry of Health & Wellness.
DIVOC has set up the “Digital Vaccination Certificate Portal,” which also serves as the citizen portal, as well as a system admin portal for Jamaica. The vaccination data has been integrated with CommCare.
1.24.0-generic
Certificate generation: This is in sync with the country’s COVID-19 vaccination event. Once a person gets vaccinated, information is sent to Jamaica’s vaccination system and a certificate is automatically generated via DIVOC.
Certificate verification: The citizen portal can be used to verify the QR code-based certificates that are issued after vaccination.
Updating certificates: DIVOC has enabled a certificate update/correction API that can be used to update or correct an issued certificate if a citizen requests it.
Revoking certificates: This feature has been provided to Jamaica and will be implemented soon.
SMS service: DIVOC’s certificate module has been integrated with the SMS gateway service facilitated by Jamaica. As part of this service, a notification is sent to every citizen after they get vaccinated, informing them to download their certificates from the citizen portal.
Downloading certificates: Beneficiaries of the vaccination program can log in to the citizen portal using the 10-digit mobile number that they had used during registration and then click on “download your vaccination certificate” to view and download certificates.
Print facility: The staff or administrator at a facility will be provided with a login to use this feature to search for certificates and print them on behalf of the citizens. When a citizen walks into a facility, the staff will use the information (mobile number or date of birth) provided by him/her to search for the vaccination certificate. Once they find the certificate on the portal, the staff can download and print it.
All COVID-19 certificates are generated as per the WHO-Digital Documentation of COVID-19 Certificates (DDCC) data specification.

Redis service
To check the status of the Redis server:
For getting into the Redis container, use the command “redis-cli”.
Inside Redis, use the command “PING” -
- If the response is “PONG” then the server is running.
- If the response is blank or anything else other than “PONG,” the server is not running.
To get out of the Redis container: “exit”.
Restarting service mainly involves killing the service and starting it again.
Procedure to kill a service:
For killing any service on a Linux machine, we need the process_id of the service. The process_id which we get as the output number for further steps in killing the service by running the command is: $ ps aux|grep redis.
For killing an unresponsive service on a Linux machine, replace the process_id_of_service with the value that you have noted down in the above step:
$ sudo kill -9 process_id_of_service.
To confirm if the service is killed: $ sudo service redis-server status.
Procedure to start a service:
After successfully killing the service, to start the service: $ sudo service redis-server start.
To check the status of the service: $ sudo service redis-server status.
Note: Check the status of the redis-server as mentioned above.
