Data collected by researchers from the Laboratory for Technological Innovation in Health (LAIS/UFRN) indicate that the requirement of the vaccination passport to access events and places of great movement boosted the demand for immunization against covid-19 in all Rio Grande do Norte, including the capital, Natal. After the vaccination requirement, it was verified, among people over 18, an increase of more than 90% in the demand for the immunization.

The cutout takes into account the period between January 11th and 25th, being one week before and one week after the publication of the state decree that requires the presentation of the passport, published on January 18th, only for the application of the first dose. For D2, the increase was little more than 23%.

At the same time that the state decree boosted the demand for vaccination, the non-mandatory nature of the vaccine passport, decreed by Natal City Hall, also impacted the immunization of the population. The difference between January 24th (date when the release of access without the passport was announced) to the following day registers a drop of 9.35%.

All the data, which follows below, was compiled and analyzed by LAIS researchers.
