Can't travel without the new crown vaccine?

Response from the National Health Commission

  In recent days, there have been notices in many grassroots areas that cannot travel without being vaccinated against the new crown virus, cannot enter the mall, cannot go to a stall, cannot enter the hospital, and public officials who have not been vaccinated have stopped paying their wages, making the new crown virus vaccination to protect themselves. Preventive behavior has encountered various embarrassments.

What are the facts?

  The reporter learned from the CDC of the National Health Commission that the new crown virus vaccination follows the basic principles of "informed, agreed, and voluntary".

After China entered the normalized prevention and control of the new crown epidemic, there have been local transmission epidemics in many places in China. After epidemiological traceability investigations, it was found that these epidemics were related to overseas imports, indicating that the current risk facing China is still overseas imports, and China still It is in the normalized prevention and control stage of "external defense input, internal defense rebound".

  With the introduction of vaccines as a prevention and control method, both China and other countries are actively promoting vaccination, while adhering to the current public health and social prevention and control measures, and maintaining good personal protection awareness to prevent and control the new crown epidemic .

The new coronavirus vaccine is an important means to prevent and control the import and spread of the epidemic, and it can also reduce the incidence of severe cases and deaths.

In accordance with the "Law of the People's Republic of China on the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases" and the relevant requirements of the new crown virus pneumonia "Class B Class A", the population of the right age without contraindications should be fully accessible.

The CDC of the National Health Commission has paid attention to the notifications of restrictions on groups that have not been vaccinated with the new coronavirus vaccine in individual areas, and has given guidance and regulations in a timely manner.

  In fact, the National Health Commission has always paid attention to the use of compulsory methods to inoculate the new coronavirus vaccine.

On April 11 this year, the State Council’s joint prevention and control mechanism press conference stated that simplification or even one-size-fits-all vaccinations have appeared in individual places, and this practice must be resolutely corrected.
