Do I need to get vaccinated against coronavirus every six months?

With the advent of Omicron, doctors again began to actively talk about the need for revaccination - a “booster” vaccination is needed to spur the immune system to actively produce antibodies to the coronavirus again, to strengthen protection against both the delta strain and Omicron. While virologists are figuring out how dangerous the new variant of SARS-CoV-2 that arrived from Africa is, infectious disease specialists insist: it’s better not to wait and “get vaccinated.” To whom, when and with what vaccine?

First of all, we will answer the question that worries many: do Russians need to get vaccinated every six months in order to renew the validity of the QR code?

Last week, a decision was made that equalized the duration of validity of the QR code of vaccinated and recovered patients: now both have it valid for a year. Thus, a booster vaccination after six months is carried out solely at the request of the person; no leverage is provided here. By the way, after each revaccination, the previous QR code is automatically replaced with a new, current one. Also valid for one year.
