This will be your most important document in 2021 – everything about the Covid-19 “passport”
There are a lot of people who cannot wait to travel after a long period of lockdown: the majority of tourists want to know about the certificate for the coronavirus vaccination, what to expect next year, for example, and whether they can enter a country without the certificate.
The safety and proper information of consumers are the most important aspects in relation to health and travel, says the National Federation of Associations for Consumer Protection in Hungary (NFACPH). They remind us that protecting health is a primary consideration in any investigation carried out by the consumer protection authorities, i.e. they make sure that a particular product is examined with the utmost care to ensure that it is not dangerous to the consumer, writes Magyar Nemzet.
Services, such as travelling, can also undergo such examinations. Consumer advocates are calling attention to the fact that
the passenger also has a great responsibility; for example, they must always make sure that they take out accident and health insurance.
However, it is the consumer’s choice to decide whether to enter into a contract or bear the consequences of its absence if they fall ill abroad. It is also up to every person to decide whether to vaccinate of their own accord – as long as a country does not require a vaccination certificate upon entry.
People need to be prepared for each state to require a vaccination certificate at any point, experts warn. They add that, even before the epidemic broke out, many countries could only be visited by tourists if they vaccinated against certain diseases.
This was proved by a certificate registered in a small, yellow booklet. It will probably not be any different in the current pandemic situation.
They also revealed that the NFACPH and the Association of Hungarian Travel Agencies have long lobbied for the full price of a trip to be displayed every time so that the consumer does not have to pay attention to additional expenses.
New legislation already states that the full price of the luggage must include all costs, and it must be indicated in all advertisements by the tour operator or travel agent.

Health passport is an excellent way to “persuade” those who think they can avoid the vaccination and boycott the target, which is to reach herd immunity ( for which target at least 70-80 % of injected people is needed ) . You do not want to receive the vaccine? Fine, but in that case no travel, no events, no access to schools, hospitals etc. etc. Citizenship means responsability to a state and a community, it means duties also, not only rights. And endangering others, by the way, is not a right. In fact it is a crime.
Threat?!?!? A 99% survival 3 days flu like “illness?!?!?! Is everyone going insane?!?! Has the flu vaccine eradicated the flu, NO!!!! Is it mandatory? NO! So what is really going on???? You journalists should be searching for the real reasons behind this insanity! Every person should have the right to decide what goes inside their body without becoming a second hand citizen and considered a “threat” without actually being one!!! A vaccine that can destroy your life in minutes without having the possibility of demanding responsibilities by the pharmaceutical industry and 90% of the population is agreeing and demanding it… This is absolutely insane…
The people who are vaccinated can spread the virus however, maybe it is not clear. The Antibodies IgG are in the blood not in the nose, so do not dream. The only one really safe are the once who recovered fro COVID, as there immune system is able to clear the virus directly and they are not spreading.
