A new COVID-19 vaccination mandate was issued in Beijing on July 6, limiting unvaccinated residents from entering some public venues amid the recent outbreak of COVID-19 in the city.

According to the new rule, people must be vaccinated to enter crowd gathering venues, such as offline training institutions, libraries, museums, stadiums, gyms, performance entertainment venues, and internet cafes; and priority for appointments will be given to vaccinated people.
