"It feels very good!" Caspar Schutte from the Netherlands said happily after being vaccinated against the COVID-19 in Jinjiang.

Schutte and his colleague Megan Johnson from the United States visited Jinjiang Municipal Hospital, a designated hospital for vaccination, early in the morning on June 17th, and received their second dose of the vaccine with the help of an interpreter.

They completed their first dose in Xiamen, Fujian, in late May, as arranged by their employer, a foreign company in Jinjiang. "I didn’t have any adverse reaction after the first dose either," Schutte recalled.

In June, Jinjiang kicked off citywide vaccinations for all foreigners in the city. Knowing that they don’t have to travel to get vaccines, they decided to receive the second dose in Jinjiang. "The whole process was very smooth and the medics were kind," said Johnson, who also said that she felt safer while traveling after being inoculated.
