News: Gathering restrictions will keep two-and-a-half-year-old children in critical condition

Epidemic Gathering Restriction Order

There were 5,142 new confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia in Hong Kong yesterday, including 390 imported cases, and the total number exceeded 5,000 once more. The two-and-a-half-year-old boy diagnosed with acute necrotizing encephalitis was admitted to the Paediatric Intensive Care Unit of Queen Elizabeth Hospital yesterday and is still in critical condition. According to the HA, a total of 11 critical cases of children have been hospitalized in the Paediatric Intensive Care Unit in the past two months.

Su Jinghuan, co-chairman of the Paediatric Coordination Committee of the Hospital Authority, said that vaccination once morest the new crown can reduce the risk of acute complications, severe disease or death in children following infection, as well as the risk of medium and long-term sequelae following recovery. He also pointed out that young children may be infected with the flu and the new crown virus at the same time or have serious conditions, and urged parents to arrange for their children to be vaccinated once morest the new crown and flu vaccines as soon as possible.

The government today relaxed the upper limit of the “restriction of gatherings” to 12 people. According to the news, the government believes that the measures still need to be retained to reduce gatherings in certain situations, or impose additional restrictions when the gathering restrictions are waived, such as requiring participants of large-scale sports events to first. Do a quick test.

Source: “Reverse isolation” is indeed difficult

The entry measures were relaxed to “0+3” at the end of last month. The source did not respond positively to the relaxation timetable, only saying that winter is approaching and the “no time” is relaxed to “0+0”. The source also emphasized that the capacity of the HA should be considered when relaxing the measures, and it is believed that nearly 20% of the services of the HA are still affected, which is not ideal.

In addition, the Hong Kong government revealed earlier that it had discussed “reverse isolation” arrangements with the mainland. It is reported that since the number of confirmed cases in Hong Kong is “really much higher” than that in the mainland, coupled with the risks and difficulties in manpower arrangements and the transportation process, the measures are described as “not as easy as imagined”, admitting that it is indeed difficult to clear customs with the mainland at present.
