I believe that even if you have purchased an additional coverage for COVID-19, the insurers will deny your claim for COVID-19 if your vaccination status is not updated. And you must comply with COVID rules in your destination country.
Take Thailand, for example. You are not required to produce vaccination certificate or COVID test results, but they expect you to be vaccinated or at least do a COVID test 48 hours before departure. It's just that they do not require you to show proof. However, that will impact on your eligibility to claim from the insurers if you are infected during your trip.
So if you unvaccinated or your vaccination is not up to date, there is no point purchasing COVID-19 coverage. They will not pay you.
