The government lowered the vaccination age of Forbitux to 12 years old. From tomorrow (14th) onwards, teenagers aged 12 to 15 years old can go to community centers for injections.

Some experts pointed out that boys may have mild myocarditis within 4 days after receiving the second dose of Fubitai vaccine.

The former chairman of the Hospital Authority, Leung Che-hung, responded that there is a large amount of data that proves that the side effects of the vaccine are not significant.

He also emphasized that no vaccine or drug will be completely free of side effects, but the public should weigh the severity and consider the side effects and efficacy of the vaccine.

Vaccination can reduce the death rate of the new crown Liang Zhihong: We should weigh the risks and effects

Starting tomorrow (14th), 240,000 young people aged 12 to 15 who have made an appointment in Hong Kong can go to the community vaccination center to get the vaccination for Fubitai.

Some experts pointed out that boys may get mild myocarditis within 4 days after receiving the second dose of Fubital vaccine, with a rate of 1 case in 5,000 to 6,000 people.

The former chairman of the Hospital Authority, Leung Che-hung, responded that there is a large amount of data that proves that the side effects of the vaccine are not large. After the vaccination, not only will the vaccinated get immune function, if the vaccinated unfortunately get infected, the vaccine can also effectively alleviate the disease and reduce the mortality rate.

At present, the business community is also offering many concessions to encourage people to get injections. Liang Zhihong believes that there are "incentives" to attract a large number of people to get vaccinated, so that "Hong Kong people see the benefits."

He also urged citizens not to relax at this stage, to still wash their hands frequently, wear masks, and maintain social distancing.

If citizens have chronic diseases such as drug allergies, high blood pressure, diabetes, etc., they can consult their doctors before deciding whether to vaccinate.

When asked by experts that if the elderly are suitable for influenza vaccination, in principle, they can also receive the new crown vaccination. Liang Zhihong said with a smile that he currently has both vaccinations, saying that "there are no special problems so far." He also emphasized that no vaccines or drugs are used. There will be no side effects at all, but the public should weigh the severity and consider the side effects of the vaccine and its effectiveness, including immunity, disease reduction, and mortality.

Liang Zhihong: Leaving employees is the root cause

As far as Hong Kong is concerned, qualified non-locally trained doctors will be allowed to practise without examination, so as to bring in talents to alleviate the problem of the shortage of doctors.

Leung Cheh-hung said that Hong Kong has never opposed overseas doctors' license to visit Hong Kong, but at the same time they should be required to reach a certain professional level in order to give citizens confidence. The examination system is a way to protect the citizens.

Leung Cheh-hung continued that the government should first address the problem of the high wastage rate of the HA, and leaving behind staff is the root cause.

According to the survey, half of the grassroots elders are willing to be vaccinated after the physical examination
