Yuan Guoyong, Chair Professor of the Department of Microbiology, Faculty of Medicine, University of Hong Kong, and his team members wrote an article in Ming Pao today (25), saying that border control and community prevention and control are difficult to achieve, so it is urgent to launch a universal vaccination program.
The team pointed out that the previous animal experiments showed that all three vaccines can induce a moderate amount of neutralizing antibodies to prevent the vaccinators from having symptomatic infections or serious complications; however, they may not prevent asymptomatic infections and may still infect other people.
The clinical protective efficacy of the three vaccines is higher than 50% of the WHO minimum requirement, and the side effects are mild.
The team believes that Kexing vaccine seems to be the safest with the fewest side effects; while the BioNTech/Fosun vaccine has better clinical protection effects and is relatively safe.
