Hong Kong's third dose of COVID-19 vaccination has begun

  On the 11th, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region government began to vaccinate a third dose of the new crown pneumonia vaccine for designated groups, including those aged 60 years and above, those with weakened immunity, and those with a higher risk of infection.

Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Chief Executive Carrie Lam, Civil Service Secretary Nie Dequan, Food and Health Secretary Chen Zhaoshi and other officials also went to the vaccination center of the Java Road Stadium in North Point that morning to receive the third dose of Kexing Covid-19 vaccine.

  Nie Dequan said that he would observe the vaccination situation on the first day, including the vaccination situation of relevant priority groups in the next few days.

If the situation is good, the third dose will be opened as soon as possible for those who have received two doses of Coxing vaccine and the second dose has been 6 months old.

  The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region government announced earlier this month that people with weakened immune systems and those at higher risk of infection can be given the first free third dose of the new crown vaccine.
