The Hong Kong Government Expert Committee will meet to discuss the arrangements for the third shot of people who have completed two doses of vaccinations. The Director of the Centre for Infection and Infectious Diseases of the University of Hong Kong, Ho Pak Leung, pointed out today (25th) on the Hong Kong and Taiwan program "Millennium" that the Mainland’s latest guidelines and recommendations All people over the age of 18 who have completed two doses of vaccinations receive the third shot, which refers to the fact that Hong Kong has not yet introduced guidelines for the third shot for specific groups. It is described as a "backward situation". If customs clearance with the Mainland is required, Hong Kong is in the direction of vaccination. It is necessary to catch up in a hurry and connect with the mainland.
He suggested that the Hong Kong government should make more flexible arrangements to allow the public to choose the time of the third injection and whether to "ditch the injection."

The Mainland has issued the latest guidelines for the third dose. It is recommended that people aged 18 and above who have completed the two doses for 6 months can receive a booster dose.
He Boliang, director of the Infection and Infectious Diseases Center of the University of Hong Kong, believes that the purpose of the third injection in the Mainland is not only to prevent severe illness, but to prevent community outbreaks.
On the contrary, Hong Kong has not yet provided guidelines for arranging a third shot for specific groups. He believes that it is a "backward situation." Rush to catch up.
He pointed out that many places in foreign countries also recommend the third dose of vaccination for specific groups. They lose immunity 6 to 9 months after vaccination.
He suggested that the Hong Kong Government should have more flexible arrangements in arranging the third injection, so that eligible citizens can choose when to have the injection and whether to "ditch the injection." If the arrangement is too rigid, the third injection will be slowed down.
He believes that the data indicates that the third dose of "groove injection" has higher antibodies after the third injection of BiTai. It does not rule out that some people are more confident in Kexing vaccine, and they should be allowed to have the freedom of choice.
