Activities organized by the Yau Tsim Mong area today (28th) held the "Yau Tsim Mong Elderly Vaccination Day" event. Through health talks and doctor consultation, 170 elderly people in their 70s to 90s were encouraged to participate in vaccination.
Director of the Civil Service Bureau Nie Dequan attended the event to support the event and communicate with the elderly.
Nie Dequan pointed out that some elderly people disclosed that they have questions about their physical condition and think that the support and information provided by the event are very convenient and considerate from the perspective of users.

After attending the health seminar and consulting the doctor on the spot, the elderly can decide on the spot whether to vaccinate Kexing at the Guanyong Community Vaccination Center or make an appointment for vaccination against Fubitai. Nie Dequan revealed that some elders will be vaccinated on the spot after listening to the lecture .
Nie Dequan emphasized that only people who work together to vaccinate can establish a protection network in the community. Therefore, he urged the elders on the scene to promote the vaccinations in the community and promote vaccinations to "tea friends" and "sparrow feet" so that everyone can get together with peace of mind.
Nie Dequan pointed out that nearly 5 billion doses have been vaccinated globally, and 2 billion doses have been vaccinated in the Mainland. Countries or regions with high vaccination rates have high levels of elderly vaccination rates.
However, the situation in Hong Kong is different. The vaccination rate for elderly people aged 70 or above is very low. Only one in four people gets the first shot. The situation is worrying.
However, he also said that he saw an influx of people at the vaccination centers, including the elderly, and parents and children who were vaccinated together. He hoped that the public would maintain the momentum of vaccination and continue to work hard to restore normal lives.
He thanked the Yau Tsim Mong district organizations and leaders, the vaccination center team, volunteer medical staff and volunteers who participated in the health seminars for their concerted efforts to provide convenient services to the public and promote vaccination.
