Vaccine Pass｜The half-year validity period of the QR code of the recovered patient is faster than the third injection after two injections?
[08:05] More than 1.2 million people in Hong Kong have been infected with the new crown virus in the past few months. They do not need to be vaccinated for half a year after recovery. They can use the QR code of recovered patients to enter and exit places that require a vaccine pass.
Starting from the 31st of this month, the vaccine pass will be upgraded to three doses of the vaccine. Some people infected with the virus in January found that the validity period of the QR code of the recovered person will expire in July, and they have already received two doses of the vaccine. When the third dose is administered, it may be impossible to enter or leave restaurants and listed premises.
The Food and Health Bureau replied to "Hong Kong 01", stating that citizens only need to follow the government's vaccination requirements, and those who have already received two shots do not need to receive a third shot.
However, the bureau did not answer whether the QR code of the recovered person "expired", whether the public will continue to use their own QR code, or if there are other arrangements.
