# 
# REQUIRES: pip install cose  #!!!!
#
# HOW TO USE:
# 1. Use your favourite QR scanner to scan the code from a certificate, 
#    you'll get a string that starts with "HC1:"
# 2. Run the script: python3 covid-qr-certificate-decoder.py
# 3. Paste the string when prompted
#

@fjusufi-ubt it happened to you, so it might help you: When I copied the qrcode, it had two "HC1:", so if you divide it into two different qrcodes may work for you, it did in my case. I hope it helps

@DavidBor17 could you help me to make a valid GP?

@krajcit Hey sir, can you provide me your source code allowing to put new input information in the qr code pls ?
I'm trying to create one since 2 days but without sucess...

@krajcit Hello! Please send me your source code to qreate QR with new input information? It's very important for me and it's for me only)))
