Starting from Sunday, France will allow international travellers who have had AstraZeneca’s Indian-manufactured vaccine into the country .
The move to accept visitors vaccinated with AstraZeneca’s vaccine made by India’s Serum Institute came after a global outcry over the fact that the European Union’s Covid-19 certificate only recognises AstraZeneca vaccines manufactured in Europe.
At the same time, France is tightening border checks to control the spread of the delta variant and protect hospitals, according to a statement from the Prime Minister on saturday.
France still doest recognise vaccinations by Chinese or Russian vaccines, only those authorised by the EU drug regulator.
