Do I have to wait for SMS notification for the second vaccination?

Legal analysis: COVID-19 vaccine generally needs to be injected twice. The first injection and the second injection need to be separated for a period of time, and the interval should not be too short or too long, usually between three weeks and eight weeks. Some people will notify you by SMS after the first injection, so it is enough to vaccinate and inject within the specified time.

Legal basis: Article 12 of the Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) on the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases: All units and individuals in People's Republic of China (PRC) must accept the investigation, inspection, sample collection, isolation and treatment of infectious diseases by disease prevention and control institutions and medical institutions, and truthfully provide relevant information. Disease prevention and control institutions and medical institutions shall not disclose relevant information and materials involving personal privacy.

Where the administrative department of health and other relevant departments, disease prevention and control institutions and medical institutions illegally implement administrative management or prevention and control measures and infringe upon the legitimate rights and interests of units and individuals, the relevant units and individuals may apply for administrative reconsideration or bring a lawsuit according to law.
