As of ICE Version 1.22.1, a new feature is available that allows client applications to override how ICE would normally evaluate a specific specified shot.
The Dose Override feature enables client applications to indicate that an administered shot must be treated as INVALID or VALID, as specified in the request sent to the ICE service. By doing so, the client is essentially forcing ICE to bypass any logic it would normally use to evaluate the shot. Regardless of what would normally be done, ICE will mark the shot as specified in the request, regardless of what would normally be done. Typically, this feature would be used when there is a vaccine efficacy concern (e.g. - an incorrect administration, vaccine expiration, etc.), or to indicate that a shot should be marked Valid when ICE would normally evaluate it as Invalid.
We suggest that this feature, if used at all, be used with caution and only under certain circumstances such as those described above. Users should carefully consider their the use cases and experiment with the feature so that are no unexpected results.
This By default, this feature is disabledin the downloadable distribution by default. To enable it, add the following line to the ice.properties file:
