Anna Popova: the government is discussing issuing QR codes to Russians with antibodies

The Russian government is discussing issuing QR codes to Russians with antibodies … This was reported by the chief sanitary doctor of Russia Anna Popova, her words are quoted by TASS.

There is such a task, there is nothing to argue with, you need to find the most acceptable option for its solution

Anna Popov Chief Sanitary Doctor of Russia New Rules regions of the situation with the spread of coronavirus.

In particular, Russians may be required to present a QR code on vaccination, a document on the transferred COVID-19 or a medical withdrawal from vaccination when visiting all public places, cafes and restaurants, as well as when visiting any public events. The lists of such places will be established by the heads of regions.

Passport verification will become mandatory when checking QR codes. If you refuse to present a document, the visitor may not be allowed in even if there is a QR code. The bill will not affect the operation of pharmacies, grocery retail and stores with essential goods.

Also, a QR code system will appear on air and rail transport. It will be possible to get on planes and trains in Russia only with a QR code. You will have to show it when buying a ticket.

An alternative to the introduction of the new bill, according to Senator Vladimir Krugly, Honored Doctor of Russia, could be a complete lockdown. The Federation Council expressed the hope that the parliament will approve the document by the end of 2021.

With a QR code, without vaccination

Russians who asymptomatically recovered from coronavirus will be able to receive QR codes if they have a positive PCR test, the chairman of the committee said State Duma on health protection Dmitry Khubezov.

Asymptomatic patients who have a confirmed diagnosis have no problems – they will also receive a QR code.

Anatoly Altshtein, a researcher at the Gamaleya Research Center for Epidemiology and Microbiology, disagrees with this position. In his opinion, such citizens need to be vaccinated, like all other people without medical contraindications, because, according to the doctor, they have a weak specific immune response to the coronavirus. In addition, the epidemiologist is confident that in the case when a person asymptomatically suffered a coronavirus and then vaccinated, he will receive stronger immunity.

Russians with a medical lead from vaccination against COVID-19 will be added to a separate database. According to the order of the Ministry of Health, health workers will have to enter information about people with contraindications for vaccination against COVID-19 in a special database. It is noted that each of the five vaccines registered in Russia has its own list of contraindications.

According to a specialist in especially dangerous infections, an immunologist, doctor of medical sciences Vladislav Zhemchugov, the only reason for issuing a medical exemption from vaccination against COVID -19 is an unwanted severe reaction to a particular drug.

If, for example, a certain vector vaccine was introduced, there was a severe reaction to it, then this vaccine, only it, should not be used further. And even this person can be vaccinated with another vaccine already with appropriate precautions

The immunologist urged Russians with chronic diseases to be vaccinated in the first place, since the infection poses the greatest danger to them.

QR codes in action

Deputy Head of the Ministry of Transport Kirill Bogdanov said that checking QR codes for aircraft passengers will be introduced in Russia no later than February. However, starting from December 1 in the first Russian region – the Khabarovsk Territory – QR codes will be introduced on domestic airlines. This decision was made by the local headquarters, without waiting for federal orders. According to the innovations, domestic flights within the region will be possible only for citizens with valid QR codes.

On November 17, mandatory QR codes were introduced for access by Russian government officials who come to the State Duma meetings. According to the speaker of the lower chamber Vyacheslav Volodin, if the speaker speaking on behalf of the Cabinet of Ministers on the bill does not have a digital pass, he will not be allowed into the meeting room.

Meanwhile, a new profession has appeared in Krasnoyar – QR code checker. The vacancy was posted on the Zarplata.ru website. The duties of the employee will include checking QR codes at the entrance to the shopping center. The working day is from 10:00 to 22:00, but it can be divided into two shifts. Payment – 1000 rubles for a full shift.
