醫學專家說疫苗戰略是對抗 COVID-19 大流行的關鍵

推廣有效的疫苗策略將是下一階段對抗COVID-19大流行的首要任務, 上海著名醫生張文宏週一在其新浪微博帳戶上寫道.

“有一定比例的病例儘管接種了兩劑疫苗，但仍出現嚴重情況，需要補充氧氣. But the incidence of severe cases among those who have received the third shot was just 0.1 百分,” wrote Zhang, the head of the Center for Infectious Diseases with the Shanghai-based Huashan Hospital. “This shows a strong correlation between vaccination and the incidence of severe cases.”

Regarding the latest COVID-19 wave in Hong Kong, Zhang said that medical teams in the Chinese mainland have cooperated with pandemic prevention teams in Hong Kong and applied efficient anti-epidemic methods in vaccination, hierarchical diagnosis and treatment, and testing.

According to him, among the 1,561 deaths in the latest wave in Hong Kong, 94.7 percent were seniors and 91.3 percent had not been fully vaccinated. The fatality rate for unvaccinated cases was 1.25 百分, 31 times higher than those who received two doses.

“Based on what we have seen in Shanghai, Hong Kong and Singapore, vaccination is of great significance and promoting efficient vaccination strategies will be the top priority in the fight against the pandemic in the next phase, aside from having a medical triage system,” he wrote. “If this is achieved, we can expect the COVID-19 pandemic to come to an end.”

Zhang also reinforced the importance of allowing residents to maintain their daily routines amid efforts to curb the spread of the virus.

The core of the fight will also lie in “scientific and precise prevention and improving the living environment and feelings of people put under quarantine”, Zhang wrote.
