- FIFA has in mind eliminating the vaccination certificate as a requirement for fans to have access to the sports fair
- This initiative is still in talks and will depend on what happens in the next Arab Cup
- The Qatar World Cup will take place between November 21 and December 18, 2022
It seems incredible, but the Qatar Soccer World Cup 2022 is getting closer and closer, which, according to the latest updates, will be the last in the format that we know of.
Although it is true that, unlike what normally happens with this great sporting event, the Qatar World Cup will take place at the end of 2022, which, in a way, seems an unbeatable scenario for the realization of the maximum fair of soccer.
And it is that, based on the latter, we know that, by 2022, the presence of Covid-19 will continue to be news, although we do not know how relevant it is, considering that, in theory, the vaccination plan around the world has concluded .
As the experts have said, Covid-19 is here to stay and, from now on, it will be necessary to learn to live with it and with the effects it can generate, since it is still a new disease.
However, both specialists and the population worldwide expect that, by the following year, the situation will have improved significantly and restrictions on attending events such as football matches, concerts, conferences and others, will have decreased considerably.
What does FIFA propose?
Under that tenor, the arrival of the next soccer world cup organized by the International Federation of Football Association, or FIFA, is one of the most anticipated by fans and, for this, some preparations are already beginning to be made.
One of them has to do, precisely, with the restrictions due to Covid-19, with which FIFA is looking for all fans to have access to the event.
The idea is that it is no longer a requirement to present a vaccination certificate to have access to the sports fair, something that, without a doubt, speaks, on the one hand, of the confidence that one has regarding the future, but also puts the organizers in check Well, as has been frequently mentioned, Covid-19 will continue to be big news in 2022 and in the following years.
Now, these possible new averages contradict what was expressed by the Qatari prime minister himself, who, in June of this year, stated that it would be a requirement for fans to present a complete vaccination certificate in case of wanting to be present at the World Cup. soccer.
Now, it seems that they are relaxing their measures and everything will depend on what happens in the Arab Cup, which will take place on November 30 and December 16, a scenario that will serve to see how the public adapts to new possible measures.
Is it a good idea?
This, of course, is not confirmed, but the idea is in the air. Although it is impossible to predict what will happen to the virus in the future, what can be done is to prevent it from having the same influx.
Let us remember that during the Eurocup, sanitary measures were relaxed, accepting a large number of attendees, and the effects were that many new infections of Covid-19 were registered among fans.
The Qatar Soccer World Cup will take place from November 21 to December 18, an unusual date for this event that regularly takes place between June and July.
The decision to develop it for those dates has to do with the high temperatures that are registered in the country between June and July, being one of the important arguments for FIFA when opting for the World Cup venues.
