Two University of Hong Kong scholars wrote in a newspaper today that most young adults in Hong Kong have received at least two doses of the vaccine, and many people have developed immunity after being infected in the fifth wave of the epidemic, and young adults are severely ill and have a much longer mortality rate. Low, it is recommended to relax the "vaccine pass" requirements to allow adults under the age of 60 to enter designated premises without using a "vaccine pass".


The Secretary for the Civil Service, Nip Tak-kuen, who is in charge of the "Valley Needle" project, said that only 68% of the citizens aged 20 to 60 who have met the time limit and have received the third dose of the vaccine, and the protection is still insufficient. The three needles will make the social protection barrier stronger, and social distancing measures can continue to be relaxed.


As for the issue of vaccine passports, Nie Dequan pointed out that the vaccination time has been announced early. At present, vaccination centers and private clinics are still capable of handling 100,000 doses of vaccines a day, and about 30,000 doses are currently used every day. The public should get the third injection as soon as possible to reduce the risk of severe illness and death.

When asked if there will be a "sunset clause" for the vaccine pass, Nie Dequan pointed out that it will be implemented by the Food and Health Bureau, and the maintenance period has not yet been determined.
