China News Agency, Hong Kong, February 27th, title: Hong Kong people's anti-epidemic picture: life should continue with adequate protection
China News Agency reporter Zhang Xiaoxi
Miss Li, who lives in Hung Hom, is an ordinary Hong Kong office worker.
Under the new crown pneumonia epidemic, Miss Li still has to commute to work, but she pays more attention to protective measures than before.
"I usually take a taxi to work in the morning. When I get off the bus, I use alcohol-based hand sanitizer to disinfect my hands. When I arrive at the company, I will spray my belongings with alcohol spray. I will not take off my mask during work." Miss Li said .
Like many Hong Kong people, Miss Li has become accustomed to using rapid antigen test kits regularly to test herself for the new coronavirus, and she has had negative results in recent times.
This week, she also went to a vaccination center newly established by the Hong Kong SAR government to receive a third dose of the new crown vaccine, hoping to provide herself with better protection.
Miss Li told a reporter from China News Agency that since the Spring Festival this year, she has been preparing to take a third dose of the vaccine, but it has been difficult to make an appointment.
Knowing that the SAR government has added three short-term community vaccination centers, which will provide services from February 14, she quickly seized the opportunity to make an appointment online, and finally got the appointment smoothly.
"After the vaccine, the company will give employees a day's 'vaccine leave', and I also took an extra day off at home." Miss Li said that life will continue, and it is fundamental to protect yourself and go out less.
She used to eat at restaurants outside, but now she will order from a takeaway app in advance, and then go to the restaurant to pick up herself, avoiding contact with more people.
Miss Ha, who lives near Happy Valley on Hong Kong Island, is a "Hong Kong drifter".
On the 27th, she and a friend went to the Taiping Mountains for hiking, taking precautions along the way and wearing a mask all the time.
Since she likes to be quiet and does not go out to socialize much, Miss Ha feels that her life has not changed much recently, but she will go out less often.
"It was raining a while ago, and I was in a bad mood. The sun is shining these days, so I just wanted to go out for a walk, and I didn't want to waste the good weather." Miss Ha said.
Departing at noon and returning in the afternoon, Ms. Ha told reporters that there were many people hiking on the mountain that day, but everyone was very orderly and obeyed the rules. They all wore masks, and many people wore multiple masks at the same time .
She and her friends also strictly abide by the "gathering restriction order" and do not gather with others.
In Wan Chai, many residents still go out to buy food.
In a nearby supermarket, the reporter saw that alcohol disinfectant was placed at the entrance and checkout. Many citizens who came to buy food have taken adequate epidemic prevention measures, not only wearing masks and face shields, but also wearing them once. Sex Gloves.
The overall order of the supermarket is good. Although there are fewer goods on the shelves than before the epidemic, the public can still buy.
Staff will do regular disinfection, and many citizens will buy a lot of food and supplies at one time.
Even if the epidemic is severe, there are still enthusiastic citizens who want to contribute to society.
Gao Songjie, secretary general of the Hong Kong Elite Association nicknamed "Gao Sir", not only actively participated in volunteer activities, but also personally went to the blood station to donate blood and filmed a video to make an appeal.
"During the anti-epidemic period, the stock of blood banks in Hong Kong was low, so I appeal to all kind-hearted citizens, especially young people, to provide some help." Gao Songjie said.
Hong Kong citizens are still looking forward to a return to normal life. Facing the daily high number of confirmed cases, some people are afraid, but more people are hopeful.
"Now the central government has provided a lot of help, including anti-epidemic materials, etc., and there are also teams from the mainland coming to Hong Kong to support. I believe that in the near future, Hong Kong can still control the epidemic." Miss Zhang, a citizen, said.
Miss Li also told reporters that Hong Kong is about to launch a nationwide test and build a makeshift hospital with the help of the central government. These measures have increased her confidence in Hong Kong's fight against the epidemic. She hopes that everyone will work together to tide over this epidemic.
