The Macau SAR Government's New Crown Virus Infection Response and Coordination Center said on the 17th that at present, the vaccination rate of Macau's new crown virus has reached 75.4%, and the vaccination rate of people over 3 years old is 77.3%.
Among them, the vaccination rate of young adults aged 20 to 59 is relatively high, and the vaccination rate of children and the elderly is relatively low.
The Response Coordination Center called for more and more data to prove that vaccination is effective in reducing the risk of severe illness and death after infection.
At present, the global epidemic situation is severe, and the Omicron variant is highly contagious, resulting in a sharp increase in the number of global infections. The Response Coordination Center calls on citizens who have not been vaccinated, especially children and the elderly, to be vaccinated as soon as possible.
