Is there any evidence that new certificates have been generated and issued.

It seems that this is a prudent step.

In fact it seems that _many_ groups should establish a policy
to regenerate and reissue keys that exist on anything other
than vaults with air gapped machines.

In this world I can see dual key processing where bits and tools
in a second vault are used.

Before folk get too vault $$ crazy this can be accomplished with
a Raspberry-Pi or Beaglebone Black.   Modest financial investments
are very possible and devices with easy to duplicate  (backup and store)
OS/boot  devices are modest (most modern laptops qualify).
