Foreign nationals aged 18 or above who have been covered by Zhejiang's social medical insurance scheme may receive the vaccine free of charge by presenting their insurance documents at the vaccination site. Otherwise, the cost is 100 yuan ($15.43) per dose.
They will receive China's domestic inactivated SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine (Vero Cell), of which two doses are required. The second dose will be given 14-28 days or 21-28 days after the first dose
