Covid-19: Beijing now requires proof of vaccination to access public places

The municipality of Beijing will require proof of vaccine against Covid-19 to access most public places, starting next week, local authorities informed this Thursday.

Among the places mentioned in the statement, issued by the Beijing government, are libraries, museums, cinemas, art galleries, cultural centers, sports facilities and entertainment venues.

For about two years now, major cities in China have required the use of an app to access public or residential places. The user must first scan the QR code, a two-dimensional version of the barcode, placed at the entrance of all buildings, as well as on public transport or taxis.

These ‘apps’, in addition to recording all the places where the user has been, include test results for covid-19 and inoculation history.
