During the July 2 meeting of the Legislative Council Committee on Education to discuss school vaccination arrangements, a number of formed members urged the Education Bureau to collect school vaccination data, and even asked to "report the number" every week. At that time, the Secretary for Education Yang Runxiong responded that education must be received. The industry has a different view on injections. "Some parents think the first half of the day is good. Do the injections go back to the whole day?" He emphasized that the government does not force teachers and students to have injections. For the time being, there is no need for schools to report regularly.

He explained at that time that schools should report the vaccination figures after experts set out measures such as vaccination rates and relaxation of activity arrangements. He bluntly stated that the government is not forcing citizens to take injections, and that the right of teachers and students to choose whether to get injections should be respected and should not be targeted at the education sector.
