Carrie Lam: Unlearned Western countries legislate compulsory injections
The "Vaccine Pass" will be implemented on February 24. Carrie Lam announced today that all premises regulated by "Chapter 599F" must use a pass.
"Chapter 599F" originally regulated 17 types of premises, and will amend the regulation of 6 more types of premises, including places of worship, shopping malls, department stores, markets or bazaars, supermarkets, hair and barber shops. Ask those entering and leaving to provide vaccination records.
Many housing estates are connected to shopping malls, and residents have to go through the shopping malls to go home. Carrie Lam said that Western countries have legislated to force citizens to have injections. "(Citizens) If you can't go home through the shopping mall without hitting, it must be inconvenient, and you won't avoid it. You can use another route to go."
Public officials will go to shopping malls and supermarkets to spot check injection records
As for how law enforcement works, she pointed out that there are active and passive methods in law enforcement. The latter is often used, and public officials can be authorized to conduct random checks in shopping malls and supermarkets. Take the initiative to ask to be brought out, and sometimes special events will only be investigated.”
Public transport has been included in the scope of the list: the first thing to do is to implement it
As for whether the vaccine pass will cover public transport, Lam said that public transport is included in the list, but will not cite it for the time being because of difficulties in enforcement and enforcement. Seriously, there is a legal basis for its implementation.
The demand for vaccinations from the public has greatly increased. Whether the community vaccination centers are sufficient to meet the demand, Lam Cheng pointed out that the implementation of the vaccine pass was announced as early as the middle of last month. It can be up to 70,000 times. In the past, it was usually 40,000 to 50,000 times. It can also be vaccinated in private places. It is expected that there will be opportunities to increase vaccination places in the community.
