[16:48] Zhang Zhujun said that the quick test is theoretically about the same every day, but today it is about 1600, which proves that the public response is tight, but the real number is not as high as imagined.

[16:48] Zhang Zhujun said that the number reported today, the number of quick test reports has increased compared with yesterday, but it is not a geometric increase, but it has increased compared with before, and the nucleic acid test has dropped to more than 800. It can be seen that if there is no overall encouragement for all Hong Kong citizens to make antigens For testing, the overall numbers should both fall, but the proportion of quick testing has increased. After analyzing the cases on the online platform, about 60% of the cases have symptoms on weekdays, and more than 30% have no symptoms, but yesterday, 30% reported symptoms and 60-70% had no symptoms. Symptoms prove that someone responded to the call and tested asymptomatically. All other monitoring indicators in Hong Kong fell, but yesterday's rapid test report rose.

[11:42] Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor said that the Hetao Hospital was built and operated by the mainland.

I haven't been to the operation yet. Although some of them have been delivered, I have no chance to go there. I don't know who has been rejected.

The SAR team, the Development Bureau, the Hospital Authority and the Food and Health Bureau are all in the process of connecting, and the directors of the Hospital Authority have to check the time when they want to go, because the emergency laws and regulations can override the laws of Hong Kong to speed up the construction project.

[11:38] Carrie Lam said that the daily press conference has been going on for a month. If the daily number of confirmed cases drops to three figures, the plan will end. I am very happy to tell you, "But when it comes to boredom, everyone has no idea. I ask,” hoping to disappear as soon as possible, that is, the epidemic has been brought under control, and it has fallen below 1,000 to triple digits.

[11:32] Lin Zhengyue said that she is disappointed with vaccination. It is very difficult to push it up to a certain level. Especially for children, the first injection of 3-11 years old was 62% by 8 o'clock last night. It was 62% a week ago. 60%, the progress is slow and the situation is worrying.

Since the school will resume face-to-face teaching after the Easter holiday, we call on parents to take their children for injections as soon as possible. Omicron infection may have serious effects on children.

[11:20] Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor said that for the convenience of everyone, the government has provided quick tests for citizens, and has dispatched more than 3.1 million epidemic prevention service packages to more than 2.7 million households. 89 service points have been operating since April 7, and 92,000 people have been dispatched Service packs and 270,000 packs of quick tests to encourage public participation.

Of course, it is always a voluntary quick test, and it is difficult to guarantee how many people will participate. Even if a forced test is implemented, 1 to 3% of the households will not comply. Hong Kong society has always been free and will continue to participate in the appeal.

[11:16] Xue Yongheng, Secretary for Innovation and Technology, said that under the epidemic, the outdoor disinfection robot guardian is a 5G robot independently developed by Hong Kong and funded by public institutions. 5G, artificial intelligence, and 360 lens, spray disinfection, It has been used in community isolation facilities, various government venues, including the waterfront promenade, to help strengthen public health and reduce the risk of transmission.

[11:15] The school will resume classes in stages from April 19, and it is expected that students will be required to take regular rapid tests before going to school.

The Secretary for Education, Yang Yunxiong, said that he is still in close discussions with the Centre for Health Protection of the Department of Health to formulate clear guidelines on the frequency of testing and the criteria for class suspension, and will consider the practicality, feasibility and burden on families.

[11:12] Director of the Education Bureau, Yang Runxiong, said in a radio program this morning (9th) that according to the current development of the epidemic, he is confident that the DSE test can be held as scheduled. Otherwise, you will not be able to enter the examination room.

He pointed out that breaking into the examination room or reporting false information will endanger the examination room and affect the use of the examination room and the subjects that will be held later.

[11:04] The Chief Executive, Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor, called on the public to participate in the rapid nationwide test on the second day. I believe that the Qusheng Protection Center will explain the self-reported data using the rapid test at the press conference in the afternoon. As far as I know, the number of cases is higher than the previous day. But it's not an exponential rise, it's something the government can handle, whether it's providing support or arranging home isolation facilities.

[10:40] Recently, the epidemic situation has declined slightly, and the government continues to search for confirmed cases through the closed and forced inspection operation.

Shek Fu House in Shek Lei (2) Village, Kwai Chung, which was enclosed yesterday (8th), was released this morning (9th). About 1,510 residents were tested and 16 positive cases were found. The confirmed rate of residents was about 1.1%.

140,000 3 to 7-year-old children who have not been vaccinated, doctors worried about the rebound in school reopening, and suggested that the school's vaccination rate be closed internally |

[10:17] All primary schools in Hong Kong will gradually resume face-to-face classes from April 19. Liu Yulong, chairman of the Scientific Committee on Vaccine Preventable Diseases, said on the radio this morning (9th) that among children aged 3 to 7 years, 60,000 will be deducted. People were diagnosed earlier, that is, there are still about 140,000 people who have not been vaccinated. Since there are schools that can increase the vaccination rate in schools to 90%, I believe that principals and teachers have a key role. It is suggested that the education circle can disclose the vaccination rate of each school internally. Emphasizes the role of non-competition, but of helping each other in the same boat.
