📗 Will the green passport for those who have been ill in Georgia be given without an expiry date? The dispute between doctors and the government.
According to the statement of the head of the operational headquarters, Georgy Gibradze, the "green status" is assigned to a person who has been fully vaccinated, i.e. has been vaccinated twice or has had a coronavirus, but 14 days must pass from the moment of a laboratory-confirmed case. That is, after recovery from covid, the so-called restrictions no longer exist, and the person will always have a "green status".
❗️Doctors do not agree with the indefinite status for those who have been ill.
"In general, it is unimaginable to talk about an indefinite period. Probably, there is some kind of technical blunder or misunderstanding. There are reinfections. Coronavirus is not a measles, which you need to get over and be free all your life. Coronavirus is very different from this disease. This is the part that must be changed" the head of the vaccination commission, Ivane Chkhaidze, replied emotionally. He also noted that sooner or later Georgia will have to take an unpopular step towards mandatory vaccination for certain categories of citizens and professions.

🙈📗 In order to confuse everyone completely, the Georgian authorities decided to make two types of covid passports.
📍for internal use - indefinite;
📍for trips abroad - valid for six months.
How this will be implemented, I will definitely write in the near future, but in the meantime, read the comment of the Minister of Health Ekaterina Tikaradze on the journalist's question:
Journalist: "Why is it that Georgia is the only country where there are 2 types of covid passports? One temporary for vaccinated and the second permanent green passport for those who have had covid?"
The Minister of Health: "We are a special country and Georgians are unique people, so we have two covid passports and no one is surprised by this. And this is all based on our genetics and character. Each of us is a Georgian and I specifically believe that we should gradually get used to the changes that are taking place in the world."

❓📗 Issuance of indefinite "green" passports: what guided the government?
A well-known Georgian allergist-immunologist Bidzina Kolbegov addressed officials with this question: "There is no precedent in any country in the world to give a person a covid passport for life after he has had a coronavirus." Also, according to him, the introduction of these documents, taking into account the list of places where a passport is required, will raise the level of vaccination by only 5-10% and more serious steps are needed.

🚌📗 Restrictions on the use of public transport for those who are not vaccinated and those who have not been ill with covid-19 may be introduced in Georgia.
This was told by a member of the medical council Bidzina Kulumbegov. The issue of introducing restrictions on the use of public transport for citizens who do not have a green vaccination passport is being discussed by the government, which means there is a high probability that they will be accepted. But this will not happen immediately, as it requires retrofitting the transport infrastructure with control systems and studying the first stage of the introduction of green passports from December 1.
"As I know, it is planned, but it will not happen quickly," Kulumbegov said.
❗️These words are confirmed by the head of the Center for Disease Control Amiran Gamkrelidze:
"First of all, let's see how the green passport initiative will work in the country. In accordance with this, we can think about expanding the sectors."
Against this background, a rally against the introduction of covid passports and compulsory vaccination with about 2,000 participants took place in Tbilisi yesterday.
