Yes they do. Their quarantine restrictions are insane as well and apply to some travel even within the country. The difference is sinovac is an attenuated virus so a traditional vaccine which is safer and if we had real world numbers (not the 95% horseshit for the mRNA garbage) probably more effective.
There are mask mandates here in China for public transport and for going into places like hospitals.
When there are Covid outbreaks, local governments will often push lockdowns for a few weeks. If you visit a place that is considered to be Covid infected you will be required to submit yourself to a quarantine when you return to a place that is not considered Covid infected.
Although vaccinations were strongly encouraged and many people complied, the vaccination here was not mandatory. I was not threatened with loss of job when I refuse to accept any vaccination despite the fact that I interact with members of the public.
The people in the comments here need to stop pulling bullshit out of butts.
Yea I should have clarified that there was no mandate on the VAX but their restrictions are severe and there are mask and quarantine rules. Their are some vax rules in HK and I believe Shanghai as well. I am not aware of any others but there were some issues where rural people who wanted the VAX were not able to get it as fast as those in the major cities.
Proof?
There are English news stories on it. A city in inner Mongolia locked down just today. Info about sinovac is readily available. The efficacy is my guess, when these came out phizer etc... Claimed that huge 95% efficacy rate while the claimed sinovac was only like 64% or something, however since its a whole virus and not one protein the sinovac vaccine should maintain more of the effectiveness across variants hence in actual practice I bet the sinovac vaccine is more effective and also has far fewer side effects since it is a proven tech. also the quarintine restrictions are on the Chinese consulate site in English its 14-21 days depending on where you come from and where you land. You do it in a hotel that's assigned to you and during that time you take multiple covid tests. Also you pay for all this.
Mongolia is not china...
