Liu Yulong advocated the cancellation of the outdoor mask order in the middle and late February, and the quick test of teachers and students in the north to replace the nucleic acid test
[10:58] The new crown epidemic is stabilizing, and various epidemic prevention measures are gradually lifted, but the mask order is still revoked indefinitely.
Liu Yulong, a government expert consultant and chairman of the Scientific Committee on Vaccine-Preventable Diseases, suggested on a radio program this morning (27th) that the mask order can be gradually lifted in mid-to-late February.
He believes that after the Lunar New Year holiday, one or two more weeks of observation will be observed. If there is no large-scale outbreak, the epidemic prevention measures that are still in place can be gradually withdrawn, including the need to not wear masks in outdoor air-ventilated places, cancel the daily quick test for teachers and students, etc. Hong Kong people can also use quick tests to replace nucleic acid tests when they go north. The indoor mask order can be canceled around March, and the wearing of masks in hospitals and institutions should wait until the end.
He believes that the removal of masks will not cause the epidemic to rebound. Influenza may recur with the seasons, and one must gradually adapt. "The removal of masks will prevent tsunamis from appearing."
