Therefore, vaccines cannot be used as a single tool for epidemic prevention. It is believed that measures such as wearing masks and basic social distancing can still be used to control the epidemic.

He also emphasized that Hong Kong must do a good job of preventing foreign imports, because the mutant virus is rampant now, "If there is an omission, it can be passed on to three generations within one week of entering the community."
