Here is a description of the certificate format, where urn is in the first place, and then the values through:
Despite the fact that the URN in the context of covid is translated other than the uniform resource name, the construction scheme is similar. I'm not very good at these standards, I looked at the article https://alekseev74.ru/files/upload/images/ays1oq5k.jpg
Is there a connection and why is it done?

URN in covid context is translated differently than uniform resource name

Why is this? URN can stand for anything, for this it uses a namespace.
In this case, a certain number of the certificate, which is unique for each certificate (+ includes the country code, judging by the examples, which allows each country to use its own numbering without fear of collisions).
