The new crown pneumonia epidemic in Hong Kong rebounded. There were 10 new confirmed cases on Thursday. Among the 2 local cases, one of the infections was of unknown origin. It lives in Block 3, Ai Fai Building, Yau Oi Village, Tuen Mun. The patients rarely go out.
In the Tuen Mun serial outbreak, Zhang Zhujun, director of the Infectious Diseases Division of the Centre for Health Protection, did not rule out the invisible transmission chain in the area.
[22:55] The government announced that as of 0:00 today, there have been nine hospitalized cases in the past 24 hours, of which seven have been discharged, one has been in hospital for observation, and one has been discharged without following the doctor’s advice.
In addition, as of 8 o'clock this evening, the government has vaccinated the citizens with a total of about 700,100 doses of the new crown vaccine, of which about 529,400 citizens have received the first dose of vaccine, including about 339,400 people who have been vaccinated with Kexing vaccine, and about 190,000 people who have been vaccinated with Fubitai vaccine .
Approximately 170,700 citizens have been vaccinated with the second dose of vaccine, including approximately 116,200 vaccinated with Kexing vaccine and approximately 54,500 vaccinated with Fubitai vaccine.

[22:30] The government has formally implemented the Kexing vaccination plan since February 26. All citizens who received injections should receive the second dose of vaccine 28 days apart as recommended. However, after collating the data, "Hong Kong 01" found that since February In the 13 days from the 26th, a total of more than 17,000 people did not receive a second injection after 28 days.
Some Hong Kong experts believe that the data has reference value. To put it bluntly, if the protection rate is only 3%, it is as easy to be infected as if there is no injection. They call on the public to get the injection on time, otherwise it will become more dangerous every day.
Experts even pointed out that if the protection rate is low, it will be beneficial to the birth and spread of the mutant virus, with serious consequences.

[20:30] The imported cases in the Philippines continue, and some patients even carry variant viruses.
It is understood that the representative of the Philippine consulate in Hong Kong held a meeting with local employment organizations today (8th) to study arrangements for Filipino helpers to be vaccinated against the new crown before coming to Hong Kong.
It is known that the Philippines welcomes the arrangement and believes that it will help restore the confidence of Hong Kong employers. However, the domestic vaccine supply in the Philippines is insufficient, and the Filipino domestic helper ranks tenth in the priority of vaccination, which requires further study.
The Hong Kong Employment Association, an intermediary organization for foreign domestic helpers, pointed out that the Hong Kong government has purchased a large amount of vaccines. It is recommended to donate about 20,000 doses of Kexing vaccines to foreign domestic helpers who are preparing to come to work.

[20:10] Some people in many European countries have suffered from thrombosis after being vaccinated with the "Oxford University-AstraZeneca" new crown vaccine. The European Medicines Agency has assessed that the vaccine is related to rare blood clots.
Some experts in Hong Kong suggested that the Hong Kong government should reduce the number of AstraZeneca vaccine orders, or even not recommend buying them, and instead consider purchasing Johnson & Johnson vaccines.
AstraZeneca vaccine adopts adenovirus vector technology. Looking through the information, there are five vaccines approved for use in the world using the same type of technology. The following is an explanation of the use of relevant vaccines for readers.

[18:30] The Hong Kong government will arrange two British chartered flights to take the stranded British Hong Kong residents back to Hong Kong. Tickets went on sale today (8th) at 4 pm Hong Kong time, but the webpage system was once "frozen".
Some people living in Britain and Hong Kong entered the webpage early in the morning to grab tickets, but the webpage kept displaying "technical problems" and couldn't check the flight seats and prices at all. As there were only two flights and the seats were limited, I was worried that I would not be able to buy tickets in the end and felt very anxious. "It's really helpless and passive. In case of selling, it will depend on the Hong Kong government to deal with it."

The Secretary of the Civil Service, Nie Dequan, said recently that the supply of Fubitai vaccine is limited and that "you have to get vaccinated as soon as possible."
AstraZeneca is also experiencing a crisis of confidence in vaccines in Europe. Some experts worry that the export supply of Fubitai vaccine will be tight; some pharmacists said that once the vaccine supply is insufficient to suspend Fubitai vaccination again, it will inevitably discourage the public's desire for injections.

When asked whether it would switch to other vaccines and reduce the number of AstraZeneca vaccines ordered, the Food and Health Bureau said that because the government has signed a confidentiality agreement with vaccine manufacturers, it could not disclose information about individual vaccines.

Yesterday (7th), she finally received the second shot of Kexing vaccine as originally planned. After completion, she told "Hong Kong 01" that the injection was all voluntary, "I will get the injection for myself, I trust a doctor, check me It’s safe to get an injection if there is no long-term blood pressure!"
She described herself as the "second-old" vaccinator in the clinic. She wanted to be a person for herself and came on a field trip with young people. She has completed the injection "Easy Sun" and feel free to go around. See you off the hood"?
She said, "Of course you have to wear a mask! No! I can pull it!"

AstraZeneca vaccine│increases the risk of cerebral thrombosis Xu Shuchang and Cui Junming suggest the government to purchase Johnson & Johnson
[10:00] The vaccine jointly developed by Oxford University and AstraZeneca, which Hong Kong intends to purchase, has been established by the European Medicines Agency to be related to cases of cerebral thrombosis.
Government expert Xu Shuchang and President of the Institute of Pharmacists Cui Junming respectively suggested that the government abandon or reduce the purchase of the AstraZeneca vaccine and switch to the one-dose US Johnson & Johnson vaccine. They also pointed out that the vaccine’s protection rate against the South African variant virus was as high as 50%.
He mentioned that the cases of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis among vaccinators are concentrated in young European women. It is estimated that local women take contraceptives because the drug itself may cause blood clots.
Cui Junming pointed out that the Hong Kong government has signed an agreement with AstraZeneca earlier that it may be necessary to purchase a certain amount of vaccines. It is recommended that the government significantly reduce the number from 7.5 million doses to halve to avoid waste. "Hong Kong citizens (negative reports) are sensitive to You may not want to be vaccinated with any side effects.” I believe that the government should not only rely on the existing Kexing and Fubitai vaccines. For example, the previous Fubitai vaccine had packaging problems and could only rely on the Kexing vaccine, which is risky to the Hong Kong vaccination plan. .
New crown pneumonia | Xu Shuchang: the Philippines should be banned from arriving, but Hong Kong people have demand for foreign domestic helpers
[09:30] The fourth wave of the epidemic in Hong Kong is stable, and most of the confirmed cases are imported cases.
Government expert Xu Shuchang believes that in terms of epidemic prevention, Philippine flights should be banned from arriving in Hong Kong. However, the government needs to take into account the needs of Hong Kong people for foreign domestic helpers, and believes that the government may also consider allowing Filipino domestic helpers who have been vaccinated against the new crown to enter Hong Kong.
As for whether only vaccinated Filipino domestic helpers should be allowed to arrive in Hong Kong.
Xu Shuchang said that the virus may still infect others after the injection. "The virus is a variant virus that is so tight that it may not be covered by the injection. It is better to be beaten than not to be beaten at all."
He also believes that the Hospital Authority and residential care homes for the elderly can relax visits by vaccinators. Visitors need to undergo a quick test 14 days after the two injections, and they must wear a mask and maintain hand hygiene.

He felt that the public had more worries about vaccines than before the vaccination plan, but he was not discouraged and believed that time could prove the safety of vaccines. , I believe that the current vaccination rate is good, and the vaccination rate will increase after the Fubitai vaccination is resumed. It is expected that half of the adults, at least 3 million people will receive the injection in July.
The vaccination rate in Hong Kong is slower than that of Chile, Uruguay and Brazil, which started at the same time.
