In St. Petersburg, QR codes will be issued to those who have been ill with COVID without going to the doctor

Citizens who have been ill with CORONAVIRUS without going to a DOCTOR will be able to confirm this and receive a QR code by providing a PCR or antigen test. This was stated by the HEAD of the St. Petersburg HEALTH Committee Dmitry Lisovets, Fontanka reports.

“It was decided that patients who have the results of the performed PCR or the result for the presence of an antigen can go to the polyclinic at the place of residence,” he answered the question of the portal journalists.

Lisovets specified that the medical commission would consider the documents and make an appropriate decision if it considered that these data were sufficient. As soon as the experts confirm the disease, the information about the patient will be entered into the federal register, from which they will go to the public services portal, which will generate a QR code.

RBC turned to the St. Petersburg Health Committee for comment.
