RBC: The Public Chamber proposes to abandon the term “QR code” in documents

The Public Chamber suggested using the expressions “immune health certificate” and “certificate” instead of the term “QR code” in official documents.

This is stated in the conclusion of the OP on bills on the introduction of QR codes in public places and when traveling by air and rail, RBC reports. In the draft review, its authors call the term “QR code” “obscure and frightening for a large number of citizens,” and therefore recommend lawmakers to use words “more understandable to a wide audience”, including the elderly.

The review also notes that difficulties are caused by the very procedure for obtaining a code, which delivers “emotional experiences” to citizens who do not have enough experience in using electronic devices. In particular, lonely elderly people and persons with disabilities face difficulties.

Recall that in mid-November, the government submitted to the State Duma bills on the introduction of QR codes for visiting public places and when traveling by rail and air. Prior to the start of consideration in parliament, comments on bills should be submitted by the regions, the Public and Accounting Chambers, as well as the Federation Council.
