The two scientific committees of the Centre for Health Protection held a joint meeting today (9th).
Among them, Liu Yulong, chairman of the Scientific Committee on Vaccine Preventable Diseases, said after the meeting that he agreed that the vaccination age of Fubitai had been reduced to 12 years old, and pointed out that in addition to getting injections at the vaccination center, young people can also set out for injections in schools.
If there are a certain number of people, vaccinations can also be arranged at school.
He said that as long as the vaccination rate reaches 70% to 80%, the school is absolutely able to fully resume classes. When strenuous exercise outdoors, students who have received injections may not need to wear masks.
Liu Yulong also pointed out that the current vaccination rate for the elderly in residential institutions is only 3%, and the elderly are the most at risk. Therefore, the two scientific committees agreed that if the elderly have been vaccinated against influenza, they should be safely vaccinated against the new coronavirus.
However, if the elderly are weak, they should also assess the risk first.

Children with confirmed hemolytic vaccine can reduce complications
Liu Yulong, chairman of the Scientific Committee on Vaccine-Preventable Diseases, said that 13 countries around the world have allowed people as young as 12 years old to be vaccinated with Fubital. Among them, 3.3 million people in the United States have been vaccinated, and Canada There are 500,000 people and Singapore has 20,000 people.
Liu Yulong said that vaccines can help personal protection. In the past, children in Hong Kong had serious complications, including hemolysis after being recruited, and they needed multiple drugs to control them. The cases still need to be followed up.
At the same time, "multiple systemic inflammation syndrome" is also common in foreign cases. There is also a case in Hong Kong. Therefore, I believe that the vaccine will reduce complications.
Liu Yulong also pointed out that as long as the vaccination rate reaches 70 to 80%, the school definitely has the conditions to fully resume classes.
When doing vigorous exercise outdoors, students who have been injected may not need masks.
He also pointed out that children can protect the elders in the family after injections.

Arrangements for injections at school
Liu Yulong continued to point out that in the future, there may be a "three-pronged approach." Young people can go to the vaccination center for injections, or they can set off for injections in groups at school, and even if there are enough people, they can arrange for vaccination at school.
Regarding some people with myocarditis after being vaccinated with Fubitai vaccine, Liu Yulong pointed out that the team had discussed this, and believed that the situation only occurred under certain circumstances, and the symptoms were mild. As long as they had proper rest, they could recover in about 4 to 5 days.
He also pointed out that myocarditis occurs more frequently in the first four days of the second shot, so it is recommended that young people should rest and drink as much as possible after the second shot, and avoid strenuous exercise.

Side effects may be less than foreign countries
Liu Yulong also pointed out that in the past month, adolescents had been injected with Fubitai or Coxing vaccination. Among them, 84 had received the first injection of Fubitai, and 8-9 adults had arm pain. Tiredness is also common, but 1 By 2 days, it had returned to normal; at the same time, there were also headaches.
He emphasized that these side effects are relatively mild, and only a few of them are severe. They have recovered after about 2 to 3 days. The general response from foreign reports is 5 to 6 percentage points less."
He also pointed out that referring to the research data, the response after injection of Forbitux is stronger, but the antibody level will be higher; while Kexing's general response is about half lower, so the antibody level may not be as good as Forbidite, and described it as " no pain no gain".
Lin Wenjian, director of the Center for Health Protection, also pointed out that more than 1.58 million people in Hong Kong have been vaccinated against the new crown, accounting for 24% of the vaccinated population. The figure is far lower than 51% in the United States and 63% in Israel.
