Britain to add China's Sinovac, India's Covaxin to approved Covid-19 vaccine list

LONDON (REUTERS) – Britain said it would recognise Covid-19 vaccines on the World Health Organisation’s Emergency Use Listing later this month, adding China’s Sinovac, Sinopharm and India’s Covaxin to the country’s approved list of vaccines for inbound travellers.

The changes, which come into force from Nov 22, will benefit fully vaccinated people from countries including the United Arab Emirates, Malaysia and India.

The travel rules are being further simplified as all people under the age of 18, who have been fully vaccinated, will be able to enter England without self-isolating on arrival, the Department for Transport said on Monday (Nov 8).
