Liang Zichao, a respiratory specialist, said that different places have different anti-epidemic prevention and control policies, and the mainland mainly uses dynamic reset to reduce the risk of infection. Vaccine passports are not widely used.
He pointed out that it is difficult for Hong Kong to achieve a dynamic clearing, and it is forced to adopt semi-coercive measures such as vaccine passports to drive citizens, especially high-risk individuals, to get vaccinated.
