Box of eggs and vouchers: how China encourages vaccination against Covid

New posters have recently appeared on the walls of hutongs, those old alleys in central Beijing. Green, yellow or red in color, they indicate the vaccination rate achieved in adjoining houses or buildings. “The vaccination rate here is less than 40%”, indicates a red sign at the entrance of a traditional courtyard. “In this store, the vaccination rate is 40% to 80%”, announces a poster a little further, yellow this time. The green color is reserved for places where more than 80% of residents are vaccinated, “Which will give you more peace of mind”, assure the authorities of the district of Xicheng, who have set up this device to encourage the inhabitants to be inoculated.

“Vaccination is currently the safest and most effective means of preventing and controlling the epidemic”, praise the authorities on a poster showing a QR Code allowing you to make an appointment directly to be vaccinated for free.
