The introduction of QR codes in the Saratov region provoked a real collapse in shopping centers. The guards of the shopping center do not even allow Saratov residents into food hypermarkets and pharmacies located on the territory of shopping centers.
“The shopping center is just an awful situation: we cannot let people into the territory with vaccination certificates, only with QR codes,” says Yulia Makarevich, Chairman of the Guild of Shopping Centers at the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the Saratov Region, General Director of Spectr LLC (TC “Forum”) … – In the morning, people swear, shout, write to us in chats, and according to the decree of the government of the Saratov region, we cannot let customers without a QR code even in grocery stores located on the territory of the shopping center. For this, there must be separate outputs, but they are not provided. There are shops selling essential goods, for example, “Detsky Mir”. Today, customers tried to get in to pick up orders for infant formula, but we are not allowed to let them in. Moreover, we also do not have the right to let the retail employees working in the shopping center who did not have time to get the second vaccination against coronavirus (let me remind you, the business was given a deadline until December 15) – that is, they cannot enter the shopping center. Also, Saratov residents who have a vaccination period with the second component came to us, they were vaccinated in a shopping center – they are also prohibited from entering, since they do not have a QR code! In general, in my opinion, the introduction of QR codes has nothing to do with the real fight against coronavirus, it seems that the main task of the authorities is to make the life of unvaccinated people unbearable. In order to motivate them to get vaccinated. “
