Vaccine passport: WHO is reluctant but there’s hope China can be a pathfinder

BEIJING (Global Times/ANN): China and its partners that are promoting regional health code recognition can be pathfinders for a global vaccine passport programME in the future, Chinese experts said, adding that although WHO had reservations over vaccine passports, China's efforts do not conflict with WHO's stance.

China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs said on Tuesday (April 6) that China and South Korea will coordinate and establish a mechanism for the mutual recognition of their health codes, in a move that would help further normalise bilateral business and tourism activities.
