Titov suggested issuing QR codes after the first shot of the vaccine

The first injection is the most important, the business ombudsman believes. So, if you allow those who received the first dose of the vaccine to go to a cafe, then this will not bring serious threats,

Business Ombudsman Boris Titov suggested issuing QR codes needed in Moscow to visit public catering establishments, even for those who have not completed the full course of vaccination. In addition, he believes that foreign vaccines should be allowed on the Russian market, according to a message received by RBC from the press service of the Ombusman.

Titov, explaining his proposal, referred to the opinion of "the majority of physicians and biologists." They, says Titov, have already come to the consensus that the first dose of the vaccine is enough to develop immunity. “The second dose only reinforces the result,” he explained.

Titov believes that in order to encourage vaccination, it is necessary that citizens immediately feel a positive effect, and not three weeks later, when a second injection is supposed to be given. “This simple measure will save the restaurant and hotel business. It will allow you to avoid many days of downtime and reduce the flow of customers. It will give people the opportunity to go on a long-awaited vacation, spend time with children, improve their HEALTH after a very difficult year,” the business ombudsman believes.

Titov also called for foreign vaccines to be allowed into RUSSIA. All vaccines approved by the World Health Organization should appear in Russia, he believes. The organization previously listed vaccines from Pfizer/BionTech, Moderna, Johnson & Johnson, two vaccines from ASTRAZENECA, developed jointly with Oxford University and SOUTH KOREA, and two Chinese vaccines, Sinovac and Sinopharm.
