Sure, but there where no recommendations from health organizations until there was
a) A need to do so (e.g.: because of side effects in specific groups)
b) There was a sufficient large number of people who did it without problems in before.
AFAIK, except for international chinese travellers, there is no a),
and so there is no b) (for chinese + EMA vaccines). So you're on your own in making a risk assessment.

The way i read your first email, it sounded as if returning to China would
be more painful (wrt to isolation rules) if you ALSO got a non-chinese
vaccination (of course i am assuming you would have received a chinese
vaccination in before).
Maybe i misunderstood you there. If return is the same whether or not you
also got additional EMA shots, then thats a country, not IETF issue IMHO.
Didn't Australia prohibit return of australian citizens some time last year ?
Aka: nothing IETF can do about that.
