The government announced yesterday (27th) that the airport will start a trial rapid test for virus testing for people arriving in Hong Kong today (28th).

In an interview with the Hong Kong and Taiwan program "Millennium" today, He Boliang, director of the Infection and Infectious Diseases Center of the University of Hong Kong, pointed out that the rapid test technology is quite mature and can be completed within one hour.

He Boliang, director of the Infection and Infectious Diseases Center of the University of Hong Kong, said that the government's relaxation of measures may not necessarily be consistent with all regulations.

Starting today, the airport will use rapid tests for virus testing for people arriving in Hong Kong.

He Boliang believes that this is convenient for citizens to detect, and the assistance of relevant equipment is needed to handle the flow of people.

He pointed out that the public does not need to worry about the technology. He pointed out that the rapid test technology is quite mature and "stable". The relevant equipment is certified and can be completed within an hour.

Some people in South Korea died after being vaccinated with influenza. He Boliang said that Hong Kong people should not scare themselves. There is no evidence to prove that the vaccines are defective and they are not the vaccines used in Hong Kong.

He said that over 65 years of age belong to a high-risk group. Taking Hong Kong as an example, about 100 people die every day due to various causes. When most people vaccinated against influenza are in this group, a certain number of people will die after vaccination. , The situation accords with statistics.

Starting this Friday (30th), the limit for restaurants from 4 persons per table will be relaxed to 6 persons per table, and the limit on gatherings will remain at 4 persons.

Regarding the government’s relaxation of the two restrictions on the number of people, He Boliang said that these are subjective administrative decisions, and not necessarily all regulations are consistent. Before the third wave of epidemics broke out in early July, some epidemic prevention measures lacked consistency. The key lies in the implementation of relevant locations. How about the epidemic prevention measures?

He believes that the government should announce the number of restaurants that have Taiwanese commissioners. The figures help explain the relevant regulations. It is not difficult to quantify these conditions and increase government credibility when implementing epidemic prevention measures.
