Liang Zichao pointed out that most countries will arrange priority vaccination for the elderly and chronically ill patients, with a coverage rate of 90%.
He said that inactivated vaccines have few side effects, and although mRna vaccines have more side effects, the elderly have fewer reactions than young people. Unfortunately, the government did not formulate clear vaccination guidelines in the early stage, which caused some people to be falsely alarmed about the side effects.
He criticized that the expert committee did not clarify some of the misunderstandings about the vaccine. "It is unscientific to ask people to see the doctor's opinions. If you have symptoms, you must go to the doctor." As to whether the new service can encourage the elderly and chronically ill patients to get injections, he has Keep it, thinking that the public's confidence cannot be compensated by just adding more services.
Only one grower in the community has a family doctor
Lian Weiqiao, a community organization association that pays attention to primary care, agrees with Liang Zichao.
He pointed out that only one growing up in the community has a family doctor. Most of the elderly do not receive primary medical care. Many people do not know their physical conditions. The current measures are just "holding the Buddha's feet in a hurry."
He believes that the public’s lack of confidence in the injections this time also reflects the inadequacy of primary care. "If something happens temporarily, everyone doesn’t know what to do."
He also questioned how to deal with the elderly who have not been in the Hospital Authority. He suggested that pre-vaccination examinations be done at elderly health centers or government-funded private clinics to reduce the impact on public medical services.
