Eligible groups will receive the third vaccination from today (11th). Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor went to the Vaccination Center of Java Road Stadium, North Point, to vaccinate Kexing in the morning.
Nie Dequan, who is in charge of coordinating the vaccination plan, also vaccinated Kexing. He explained that because of his personal preference for "inactivated vaccines," that is, the vaccine technology used by Kexing.
Lam Cheng said in an interview a few days ago that he was given Kexing for the first two shots. He was also the first group of people to be vaccinated. There were no side effects afterwards. Therefore, he would continue to choose Kexing for the third shot.
Experts and studies have pointed out that for people who have been vaccinated with Kexing and have low antibody levels, the effect of the third dose of Fubitai vaccination is significantly better. Lam Zheng pointed out that "the higher the number of antibodies, the more closed it is.㗎La."
The group that can give priority to the third shot includes people with weakened immunity, and the third shot can be given at least four weeks after the second shot.
As for people at higher risk of infection, they include the elderly 60 years of age or older, medical staff, patients with chronic diseases, and those involved in anti-epidemic and cross-border transportation. They can be vaccinated at least 6 months after the second injection.
Lam Cheng, who is over 60 years old, belongs to a higher risk of infection and was accompanied by the Secretary for Civil Service Nie Dequan and Director of Food and Health Chen Zhaoshi during the vaccination this morning.
