The World Health Organization (WHO) said it rejects using CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus vaccine passports “at this stage” for travel because health authorities are not sure whether the vaccine is effective.
“We as WHO are saying at this stage we would not like to see the vaccination passport as a requirement for entry or exit because we are not certain at this stage that the vaccine prevents transmission,” WHO spokeswoman Margaret Harris told a news conference in Geneva, Switzerland, on Tuesday.
