BEIJING — China's capital on Wednesday (July 6) mandated Covid-19 vaccinations for most people to enter crowded venues such as libraries, cinemas and gyms, the first such move by Beijing which it coupled with a slight easing of domestic travel curbs.

From July 11, people wanting to enter certain public would need to be vaccinated unless they have issues that render them unsuitable for shots, a city official told a news briefing. Restaurants and public transportation are exempt from the rule.

"It's a slap on your own face," wrote a user on Twitter-like Chinese platform Weibo, alluding to the contradiction between Beijing's rules and the national health authority's pledge last year that there would be no curbs on movement by unvaccinated people. Beijing has yet to specify details of the new mandate, such as whether it will just require an initial dose or a full vaccination or even booster, and whether it will recognise foreign vaccines such as those from Pfizer and Moderna that remain unapproved in China.
