China News Service, Hong Kong, May 26. The Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, Carrie Lam, published an article on social networking sites on the 26th, saying that the epidemic situation in Hong Kong has remained stable in the past month, and there have been no cases of unknown local origin for many days. Citizens are themselves and others, don't hesitate, get vaccinated as soon as possible.
Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor said that as the Hong Kong epidemic continues to stabilize and social distancing measures are relaxed, the flow of people on the street has increased. Many people visit shopping malls, suburbs and beaches on weekends.
In addition, under the premise of implementing a number of anti-epidemic measures, Hong Kong has successfully hosted a number of large-scale events, including the "2021 UCI National Cup Track Cycling Race (Hong Kong, China)", Art Basel Hong Kong Exhibition, and the French May Art Festival.
The economic indicators released in April this year are also encouraging.
However, she pointed out that whether Hong Kong's economic prospects can continue to improve is of the utmost importance to the restoration of personnel exchanges between Hong Kong and the Mainland, and between Hong Kong and overseas.
Therefore, it is a necessary requirement to work hard to "zero out" the local confirmed cases and to promote widespread vaccination among the citizens.
Carrie Lam emphasized that experts have repeatedly stated that vaccines are Hong Kong and the world's best hope, and may even be the only hope, for getting out of the epidemic.
In fact, in some parts of the world with high vaccination rates, the epidemic situation has improved significantly, and people's lives have gradually returned to normal.
She described the idea of hesitating, taking a wait-and-see attitude towards vaccination, or thinking that the epidemic is stable without vaccination, etc., all run counter to the expectations of the general public.
