UK is doing plain modern day racism against non western nations. Cowin database which is aadhar linked is million times better than a hand written card.
 
It’s not like you can’t get a hand written card made with a little extra bucks in the US. Corruption is found everywhere. In India you can get a fake vaccine certificate without getting jabbed, but if you jump through many more loops. The vaccine vials at each centre are counted and the stats are verified on a weekly basis. Random vaccinations or issuing certificates without actual jabbing can happen maybe like 2% of the time. Still better than a hand written card from WAL MART.

Americans are getting issued hand written signed cards from Wal-Mart saying they're vaccinated. UK has no problems accepting those yeah?
UAE has a nationalised database linked to each individual's phone number and national ID. Still the UK isn't accepting it. CoWIN must be reliable at least 90% imo. It's a good thing we have CoWIN to track vaccination status. It's bullshit UK can't accept a QR verifiable certificate.

UK needs to get their head out of the clouds.

India already makes people coming from Europe take a covid test at the airport which other countries are exempt from. Don’t see how it is any different.

Hope you are not going to rely on shitty free Indian vaccine from a govt center.

Are you? 😱

UK's updated travel guidelines say, "Formulations of the four listed vaccines, such as AstraZeneca Covishield, AstraZeneca Vaxzevria and Modern Takeda, qualify as approved vaccines."

Problem Isn't Covishield But India's Vaccine Certificate, Says UK

Covishield has been included on the UK's revised list of approved vaccines after a furious India warned of "reciprocal measures", but double-vaccinated Indians still have to quarantine because of "vaccination certification issues", according to UK of

The certificate generated on Co-WIN does not mention the date of birth. Again, The Quint reiterates that no official reason has been given for not recognising Indians administered with double dose of Covishield as 'vaccinated'.

Why Has UK Classified Indians With Both Doses of Covishield as 'Unvaccinated'?

As the United Kingdom relaxed border restrictions to allow foreign travellers into the country, it said that Indians who have received both doses of Covishield will be considered 'unvaccinated' and will have to undergo a '10-day self-isolation.'

I don't know the exact policy of European arrivals. But there is still a lot of difference. If you take covid test after arrival, only if you are positive then you will be quarantined but UK's new policy mandates quarantine for persons fully vaccinated with Covishield which is same as AstraZeneca that was the main issue.
 
It’s not the quarantine that’s offensive. It’s the exorbitant fleecing in the name of tests and “institutional quarantine“. If I have to sit at a hotel for 5-6 days, paying special room rates, even after being fully vaccinated, and the get tested twice in that time duration, that is really irritating considering how others with a paper card saying they’re vaccinated can roam around from day 1 without even testing.
 
There’s no mandatory institutional quarantine for Indians anymore. It was started in April and ended in early August.
My mom visited in end of august. She had to quarantine at home for 5 days and take 3 covid tests.
 
£150 yes, just like the hundreds of pounds you have to pay for a visa which people from Europe and USA don’t. Covid is not the start of this behaviour and won’t be the end of it either
