Qatari Prime Minister and Home Minister Khalid Ben Al-Thani said Wednesday that fans who had not been vaccinated against COVID-19 would not be allowed to enter the stadium to watch the match during the 2022 Qatar Football World Cup. Qatar will purchase and stockpile 1 million doses of COVID-19 vaccine to vaccinate foreign fans who have not yet been vaccinated at home during the World Cup. Khalid said that the main purpose of Qatar's move is to protect the health and safety of its own people.
The Qatar World Cup will kick off on November 21, 2022, and the final will be held on December 18. This is the first time in history that the World Cup has been held in a Middle East country. (front desk reporter Zhao Yuanyuan)
