Xu Shichang, an expert consultant of the Hong Kong Government and a lecture professor at the Chinese University of Respiratory Systems, said on Saturday (March 11) that the crown disease of Hong Kong has passed, and no infection numbers have rebounded after the mask was lifted.He frankly said that the fifth wave of epidemic caused a large number of patients to die and the hospital collapsed. One of the important reasons was that the home isolation was not launched early.

According to Sing Tao Daily, Xu Shuchang said in a program that various monitoring figures, including daily severe and death toll, and the sewage detection data of the building are stable.Local cases are still mainly Omikon BA.5 and BA.2. Although they have high spreads, they are not lethal. I believe that the community's immune barrier is still very strong.

Xu Shuchang also said that after the mask order was lifted, the cases of respiratory virus infection were significantly increased significantly. For the time being, there were only sporadic cases.It is estimated that more and more people will not wear in summer.

In addition, Xu Shichang mentioned whether the WHO will discuss whether the crown disease vaccine is constantly, that is, similar to the form of influenza.Or the immune system disorder should be vaccinated every year.

Xu Shichang said that the Hong Kong Health Protection Center Joint Science Committee will meet at the end of this month to discuss the results of the World Guard and adjust the situation of Hong Kong.

I was asked about the number of deaths in the fifth wave of epidemic. In the end, what was missing at the time of epidemic prevention?As soon as the virus strain appeared, the policy was invalid. At that time, the vaccination rate of the elderly had a low vaccination rate. In addition, under the surrounding policy, the infected people were included in the hospital even if they had no symptoms, resulting in the hospital's load explosion.

He said: "Because of the surrounding policy, some asymptomatic or mild (patients) are input to hospitals, and there are not enough negative gas pressure rooms.Quarantine, the medical system may not collapse in such a short time. "

But Xu Shichang agreed, compared to SARS in 2003, the preparation of the crown disease is more complete.This is the case all over the world.He recalled the early days of Shash's outbreak 20 years ago. The medical community did not even know the nature of the virus. The hospital did not have a negative gas pressure house. The effective drug was in arrears.50 %.

In contrast, in the early days of the crown disease epidemic, the world was known to be coronary viruses, and detection agents soon appeared. Effective vaccines and oral drugs were successively available.He believes that with the advancement of science and technology, human beings will be better and better in the future.
