The new crown pneumonia epidemic in Hong Kong continued to be cleared locally. Yesterday (27th) there were 17 new imported cases, which was a single-day high since mid-April.

Fifteen of the patients came from a cargo ship (Thor Monadic) that arrived in Hong Kong waters from Indonesia on August 24. All of them carried the L452R variant virus.

In addition, a 59-year-old female patient was diagnosed after arriving in the UK. She lived in Block A, Sun Lai Court, Pokfulam, and worked on the 28th floor of Sibao International Building, Kwun Tong, and was subject to mandatory testing.


The vaccination rate in Hong Kong exceeded 60% yesterday, but the number of first doses continued to fall, and the number of appointments fell below the 10,000 mark again.

There are now 34 days before the last day (September 30) when the community vaccination center provides the first dose of vaccine. The Secretary of the Civil Service Bureau Nie Dequan posted on Facebook yesterday that the number of vaccinations and appointments for vaccination have recently declined, which is worrying. .

He pointed out that only vaccination against the virus at this stage is the most effective and protects oneself. Only when the community vaccination rate increases can we explore the next step of relaxation measures, create conditions for customs clearance, and study "coexistence with the virus." He once again called on the public to get vaccinated as soon as possible.

New Crown Vaccine|Students catch the last train to get the same-day injection DSE candidates hope to resume face-to-face classes

[13:52] The vaccination center plans to extend the arrangement to students 12 years of age or above on the same day. As the school starts soon, many students rush to the vaccination center to pick up and get an injection.

At the Zhongshan Memorial Park Gymnasium Vaccination Center this morning (28th) parents accompanied their children to the venue for vaccination.



Some recent DSE candidates expressed that they hope that the school can reach 70% vaccination rate, and they can return to the school to teach and prepare for the exam with their classmates. They also pointed out that vaccination can reduce the risk of infection during the exam. Some students think that it is better to go back to school and study. Efficient.

New Crown Vaccine | Luo Zhiguang: Institutional staff do not have to be responsible for injections and self-financed testing is their choice

[11:53] A new round of mandatory testing for employees in nursing homes, homes for the disabled, and nursing homes is about to start. The Social Welfare Department has stated that employees who are not suitable for vaccination with a written certificate from a doctor will need to pay for testing.

The Secretary for Labour and Welfare, Law Chi Kwong Jin (28th), stated on a radio program that under the free vaccination provided by the government, the staff of the institution would be held responsible for refusing to receive the injection. In the fifth wave of outbreak, it is not ruled out that the injection and detection will be forced to be combined.

Foreign domestic helpers quarantine hotels are allowed to sit on the ground and start the price Luo Zhiguang: expect to have a second hotel in mid-September

[10:57] Foreign domestic helpers from Indonesia and the Philippines can come to Hong Kong to work from next Monday (30th) after completing their local vaccinations, but after arriving in Hong Kong, they must be quarantined at designated foreign domestic helpers for quarantine. The government currently only arranges for Hong Kong Tsuen Wan Silka Hotel is the only designated quarantine hotel, with only 409 rooms and a charge of 800 yuan per night.



The Secretary for Labour and Welfare, Law Chi-kwong, said on a radio program this morning (28th) that he understands that there is a huge demand for foreign domestic helpers. I believe that thousands of qualified foreign domestic helpers who have completed vaccinations are waiting to come to Hong Kong. However, the vaccinations in the Philippines and Indonesia are still severe. At first, only a few foreign domestic helpers could be arranged to come to Hong Kong. In addition, some hotels refused to be designated quarantine hotels for foreign domestic helpers. Therefore, only a small number of rooms could be arranged for the time being. I hope that a second hotel can be arranged for isolation in mid-September.

New Crown Vaccine|Kong Fanyi: 70% of the elderly vaccination rate can pass customs, and the age of injection will be lowered

[09:32] The new crown pneumonia vaccine has been launched for nearly half a year, and more than 4 million people have received the first injection, which is close to 60% of the eligible people. The government will take further injections and will open it to students on the same day.

The new crown vaccine clinical event assessment expert committee jointly convened the man Kong Fanyi to say on a radio program this morning (28th) that the immunization rate of the elderly in Hong Kong is still low, but their mortality rate after infection is much higher than that of young people, thinking that it should be the social immunization rate. After reaching 70%, the main force is to "grain needles" to the elders. If the immunization rate of the elders also reaches 70%, the customs can be cleared and the epidemic prevention measures can be gradually relaxed.



Kong Fanyi also pointed out that although young people are at a higher risk of developing myocarditis after injections, it is still only a minority, and no serious cases have been seen yet. I believe that we will receive data from Fubitel on children aged 5 to 11 after vaccination. Show safety, the expert committee will further reduce the age of vaccination.

Brazil study: Coxing vaccine's protection rate against death in ninety-year-old patients is only half that of AstraZeneca

[04:04] The new coronary pneumonia vaccination program in Hong Kong has been in operation for more than half a year, and about 37% of them are vaccinated by Kexing vaccine.

According to a study in Brazil, Coxing's effective rate for people over 80 years old has decreased significantly, and the effective rate of protecting people from 80 to 89 years old from death is 67.3%, and the effective rate of avoiding death for people 90 years old and above has dropped to 35.4%, respectively. Compared with the AstraZeneca vaccine, the effective rate is one-third (91.2%) and half (70.5%) lower.

The study suggests that elderly people aged 80 or above who have been treated with Kexing and those aged 90 or above who have received AstraZeneca vaccine should receive a third dose of booster to increase the protection rate.

The study has not been peer reviewed and has not been published in a medical journal.
