Legislative Council member Jiang Yuhuan once again questioned the government's anti-epidemic arrangements. She posted a post on social media titled "How does the government define the term 'citizen'", questioning that the latest vaccine pass involves discrimination or violates the Basic Law.
She wrote in the post: "Yesterday, the deputy director of the Medical and Health Bureau explained that the new round of relaxation measures is to allow 'citizens' to return to normal activities. Her words made me think, aren't the citizens who have not received all the injections not 'Hong Kong citizens'?" "?"
The new round of relaxation measures is to allow "citizens" to return to normal activities.
What she (the deputy director of the Medical and Health Bureau) said made me think, aren't citizens who have not received full injections "Hong Kong citizens"?

Jiang Yuhuan pointed out that any epidemic prevention measures such as vaccine passports must be necessary, reasonable and proportionate.
All measures must not appear to be discriminatory, otherwise they may violate Article 39 of the Basic Law, which states that the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights and the International Labor Convention apply to The relevant provisions of Hong Kong shall remain in force and shall be implemented through the laws of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.
The rights and freedoms enjoyed by Hong Kong residents shall not be restricted except as prescribed by law, and such restrictions shall not conflict with the provisions of the first paragraph of this Article.
Write a letter to the Medical and Health Bureau to ask for attention and explanation
She said that after reading the two conventions again this morning, she believed that the current vaccine passport violated the principles.
The Covenant clearly states that people have basic rights to work and life and shall not be discriminated against.
The authorities' repeated refusal to cancel and relax the vaccine pass and its definition of citizens violates the principles of the convention.
She will write to the authorities demanding to face up to and explain.
Jiang Yuhuan once questioned the arbitrariness of "needle-free paper" across the board
It is not the first time for Jiang Yuhuan to question the government's epidemic prevention arrangements. The police arrested 7 doctors earlier for excessively issuing "needle-free papers" (that is, medical exemption certificates for the new crown vaccination). The government announced that starting October 12, these doctors The "needle-free paper" issued was immediately invalidated. At that time, Jiang Yuhuan criticized the government's arbitrariness and asked, "Who broke the rule of law now?"
She also cited the Prevention and Control of Disease (Vaccine Pass) Regulation, Chapter 599L of the law, pointing out that the law does not give the Secretary of the Medical and Health Bureau Lo Chong-mao the power to abolish the medical certificate of exemption.
She criticized the other party for insisting on going his own way, using "reasonable doubt" as a reason to abolish more than 20,000 certificates at the same time, "it's good to kill one and make an example."
She questioned, "Where the law does not authorize, can we just use "reasonable suspicion" as the final kill?" She asked, if the law can be such a joke, why go through complicated legislative procedures.
Jiang Yuhuan criticizes the epidemic prevention policy as "the form is greater than the reality", no longer "emergency" and should be adjusted and the government's extension of the relevant laws of the vaccine pass until the middle of next year Needle-free paper for children's development︱Officials say that responsible councilors ensure the government's legal use of power The "Break Up" of the Federation and the Dismantling of Partners Deng Jiabiao Suffered: Regret to separate from Jiang Yuhuan?
Wu Qiubei: The original intention of the service remains the same, but he disdains sensationalism. The needle-free paper refutes the fire. Rejecting Linguistic Artifacts: What's the Difference?
