China News Service, May 8th. According to the website of the Chinese Embassy in Belgium, the Belgian government is speeding up the process of new crown vaccination. The vaccination of special populations is nearing completion, and the general population will be vaccinated this month.
The Chinese Embassy in Belgium hereby reminds Chinese citizens in Belgium:
1. Actively participate in local vaccination.
The Belgian government has included Chinese citizens residing in Belgium into the vaccination program.
Please pay close attention to the local COVID-19 vaccination schedule, pay attention to check the vaccination invitation letter, understand the vaccination appointment and confirmation process in advance, and participate in the local vaccination in time according to your own situation and on the principle of informed and voluntary.
2. Continue to strictly abide by the epidemic prevention regulations.
The current situation is still more severe than the epidemic situation, and many types of variant viruses have been discovered.
Please stay vigilant for Chinese citizens in Belgium. Even if you have received the new crown vaccine, you still need to strictly abide by the local epidemic prevention regulations, take personal protection, reduce unnecessary travel, and make every effort to reduce the risk of infection.
3. Beware of false information.
Vaccinations in Belgium are implemented by the regional governments and are free of charge.
If you receive suspicious invitations such as unknown sources, inaccurate personal information, or requesting personal bank card information, please handle them carefully to avoid being deceived and causing unnecessary property losses.
It is also understood that the World Health Organization is actively studying and deciding whether to include Sinopharm’s new crown vaccine and Kexing Biotech’s new crown vaccine on the World Health Organization’s emergency use list, of which Kexing Bio’s new crown vaccine has entered the European Medicines Agency’s rapid approval process.
The embassy will continue to follow up the progress.
