The possibility of introducing “covid passports” for free movement for people who have received the coronavirus vaccine needs to be studied and developed. This was reported in Rospotrebnadzor. The agency’s response is published in Telegram -channel “stopcoronavirus.rf”.
In Rospotrebnadzor noted that the use of vaccination documents is a common practice. “At the same time, the issue of lifting restrictions for vaccinated individuals requires elaboration, taking into account information on how long the immune response lasts,” the department assessed the opportunity.
The report also notes that people can be vaccinated six months after suffering COVID-19, since the disease itself is not a contraindication. In addition, there is a high probability that by this time the immunity has already decreased.
Earlier it was reported that the service was launched on the Russian portal of state services from January 1 for the issuance of passports of the vaccinated against coronavirus.
January 3 it was reported that over the past day 24 150 new cases of coronavirus infection. Infectionist Evgeny Timakov said that the peak incidence of coronavirus infection COVID-19 in Russia has not yet passed.
