🇩🇪💉🇬🇪 Germany wanted to send vaccines to Georgia, but refused due to lack of demand.
According to German Ambassador Hubert Knirsch, his country was ready to send vaccines to Georgia (including single-phase Johnson & Johnson), but the need for it did not arise, as many in Georgia refuse to do it.
"It is terrifying when “two big buses full of Georgians” die every day. A lot of people have not been vaccinated for various reasons," the German ambassador said.

🙈📗 The situation with QR codes and covid passports in Georgia is a bit confused.
As the head of the interdepartmental headquarters Gibradze reported yesterday, in connection with the transition to European certification and recognition of local documents on vaccinations in the EU, for traveling abroad, certificates will have to be updated. In this regard, many questions have arisen. The House of Justice in Tbilisi and Batumi, for example, could not start issuing new documents today.
📲 Georgia e-Health mobile app, rolled out so far only on iOS. There are other inaccuracies, for example, in the certificate format itself there are fields for first and last names in the local language, but in fact they did the opposite.
❗️I am sure that in the next two or three days we will be able to get answers to all the questions about certificates. If you want to try to find out for yourself, you can call the hotline 144 or the Ministry of Health with the number 1505 for now, although they don't know much there either. I'm clarifying everything and will definitely let you know.

❗️📗 The list of objects to which a green passport in Georgia will be required from 01.12. can be expanded.
The head of the Tbilisi Infectious Diseases Hospital, Tengiz Tsertsvadze, called on the authorities to consider other areas of activity besides the previously approved list.
The epidemiologist motivates his statement by the low level of vaccination in the country and the fact that the list approved by the government at the moment will not significantly affect the reduction in the number of new infections.
"With the introduction of covid passports in restaurants, cinemas and hotels, we will not achieve a reduction in the number of diseases. The list of activities should be expanded. The incentive to just tell a person to make a vaccine is weak. He should feel some discomfort when he cannot perform any actions," the medic said.
