New crown pneumonia | Hong Kong government plans to launch health pass Liang Zichao: vaccine failed to stop community transmission

[10:47] The Director of the Civil Service Bureau, Nie Dequan, recently "exposed the wind", saying that the implementation of the "health pass" is not ruled out, and citizens must be vaccinated before they can enter designated premises.

Respiratory system specialist Liang Zichao said in an interview with the commercial channel program "Starting on a Sunny Day" this morning that Israel, the United Kingdom, and the United States have proven that vaccines cannot effectively stop the spread of the virus in the community. They are only aimed at personal protection and reducing The severity of the condition after infection.

Zeng Qiyin, the co-chair of the Infectious Disease Advisory Committee of the Medical Association, said on another radio program that the "Health Pass" can help control the epidemic, but if it is implemented without local cases, it is believed that the public response will be great.

New crown pneumonia | Zeng Qiyin advocated that the vaccination rate in Hong Kong exceeds 70%, and social restrictions can be gradually relaxed

[10:31] Hong Kong has zero confirmed cases for two consecutive weeks. The new crown vaccine clinical event evaluation expert committee jointly convened Hong Fanyi to propose that if the elderly vaccination rate reaches 70%, it is possible to relax social distancing measures, including gradual customs clearance.

Zeng Qiyin, the co-chair of the Infectious Disease Advisory Committee of the Medical Association, stated in Hong Kong and Taiwan's "Millennium" today (31st) that the elderly are not active in social activities, and linking elderly vaccination rates with epidemic prevention measures may not be scientific.

He believes that if the vaccination rate in Hong Kong has reached 70 to 80% and the prerequisites for no local outbreaks are met, it can be gradually relaxed, "but not all at once."

[10:06] Lam Cheng said that the authorities decided to open the first and second phases of the Penny's Bay Quarantine Center for quarantine of foreign domestic helpers in Hong Kong.

She said that the two phases can provide about 800 quarantine units, which are expected to be opened in late September. The Hong Kong government will not profit from this and only recover the cost price. The daily rent is expected to be less than 500 yuan.

Lam also pointed out that the authorities will waive a number of government fees to help eligible companies cope with the epidemic. The beneficiaries include a number of industries affected by the epidemic, involving about 3.4 billion yuan. Measures include reducing non-residential water and sewage charges. 75%, the commercial vehicle inspection fee is exempted for one more year, etc.

She continued that the authorities will announce one more measure today. Small and medium-sized enterprises that are currently renting government land can renew the lease according to the existing terms until March next year without re-tendering.

The 100% guaranteed loan program will also be extended to June 30 next year. As of the end of July this year, the loans involved amounted to 65.7 billion yuan, and the total commitment of the Hong Kong government reached 218 billion yuan.

[09:48] The local cases remain "cleared". Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor pointed out that most of the new cases in Hong Kong recently were imported cases. Some patients have been vaccinated and most of them have no symptoms. The vaccine is useful.

The local vaccination program has been launched for more than half a year, with a vaccination rate of 60.6%. Previously, there was a stage goal of reaching 70% before the start of school. "All of them are definitely not achieved." It is still expected to reach the target by the end of September.

Lam also pointed out that it is impossible for Hong Kong to refuse Hong Kong people who are in high-risk areas to return to Hong Kong. If people outside Hong Kong have already received injections, the authorities will confirm the injection records with high-risk countries or regions before arranging to return to Hong Kong.

She said that the authorities have to "turn one by one" with the relevant countries or regions, and Indonesia and the Philippines have more Hong Kong people stranded. The negotiations are settled earlier and will be discussed with Malaysia, Thailand and other countries later.
