The isolation order is revoked｜He Boliang calls for no need to be paranoid about the slow pace of Hong Kong's return to normal: non-medical reasons

Hong Kong is on the road to return to normal. Confirmed patients will not need to be quarantined from next Monday (30th). Regarding whether undiagnosed persons will increase the risk of infection, Ho Pak-liang, director of the Center for Infection and Infectious Diseases at the University of Hong Kong, said today (24th) that the recovery Regular citizens no longer need to label themselves with the new crown, and they should no longer be "suspicious". As long as they are vaccinated, mild symptoms after infection are not a big deal.

In the three years of fighting the epidemic, Ho Pak Leung agrees that Hong Kong's return to normal has been slower than foreign countries for a whole year, and pointed out that the new crown virus was already in the late stage of the pandemic in the middle of last year: "Hong Kong 𠵱 is basically returning to normal first, with a unique rhythm.... ..It can only be concluded that it is a non-medical cause.”

Recalling that opinions expressed during the epidemic were sometimes different from those of the government, Ho Pak-leung admitted that he had received kind reminders from people around him, urging him to "speak less". However, he emphasized that the Basic Law grants freedom of speech to Hong Kong people. According to the data, there is no pressure to express an opinion.

Infection with measles also has sequelae

Ho Pak Leung said on the Commercial TV program on the morning of the third day of the Lunar New Year that the COVID-19 pandemic has passed and Hong Kong has entered the stage of returning to normal. It is not called "measles". After being infected with the new crown, if you have a serious illness or a long-term illness, it is normal for your body to become weak. Returning to normal will not make you too suspicious."

Recalling that the elderly are most sad when they go to the emergency room in severe cold

Recalling the early days of the fifth wave last year, Ho Pak-leung described it as sad. During the Lunar New Year, the elderly had to line up in the freezing emergency room. He described it as the most difficult time in Hong Kong. However, the government and the medical system had "did their best", but this was the most tragic scene. .

He believes that the government should give the vaccine half a year in advance, and "take care" to promote the vaccine pass. At least 70% to 80% of the vaccination rate for one shot can avoid tragedies.

There are opinions from the outside world that the pace of Hong Kong's epidemic prevention is affected by the mainland. Ho Pak-liang agreed: "Hong Kong's governing officials and civil service system are very strong, and Hong Kong itself is a very powerful city. The pace is one year slower than that of others? It is quite difficult to understand, and it can only be concluded that it is a non-medical reason." He emphasized that Hong Kong doctors, scholars and university institutions have made great contributions to the global research on the new crown.

Unafraid of opinions contrary to the government's self-explosion that he likes to watch Song Hye Kyo dramas

When asked, why is there any pressure to express opinions contrary to the government?

He Pak-liang said frankly that as long as the content is accurate and justified, there is no need to worry. He admits that doctors and friends around him have advised him to "speak less": "Hong Kong's "Basic Law" grants freedom of speech. Although there is a "National Security Law"...but the content itself No problem, no need for special pressure." In terms of work pressure, he revealed that he likes to watch Korean dramas to relieve stress in his free time, and he blew himself up "90% of Song Hye Kyo's dramas are watched".

I said with a smile that I am glad I did not join the expert committee

Ho Pak Leung also said with a smile that he was glad that he did not join the government expert committee. He pointed out that government committee speech is restricted by appointment and needs to sign a confidentiality agreement, which covers a wide range of areas. Restrictions are equivalent to accountability officials, and any speeches must be consistent with the government.

Some listeners were concerned about whether "Weiyang people" (people without a history of infection) need to continue to receive vaccinations. He Bailiang believes that citizens need not worry. The most important thing is whether the vaccinations are effective. Bivalent vaccine, because there is already mixed immunity in the body, if the "zero needle" person intends to get an injection, he can also choose to get a bivalent vaccine.
