This article is transferred from: China Xiaokang. com Hong Kong epidemic broke out suddenly, and it was so serious that everyone didn't expect it. After all, the region has also implemented a "zero settlement" policy. According to the mainland policy, even if the epidemic occurred in Hong Kong, it could not be so serious. The The 5th Wave epidemic will still occur. Why is it in a continuous state of emergency? Shao Shanbo, a senior researcher at Chongyang Financial Research Institute, gave an analysis. With the outbreak of the The 5th Wave epidemic, different voices appeared in Hongkong. Especially for the uncontrollable epidemic, some experts believe that the Hong Kong government no longer has the conditions and ability to control it. In this case, it can only learn from the west and adopt the way of coexistence with the virus.

Why doesn't Hong Kong's "zero clearing" policy work? Of course, not all experts think so. Some experts believe that the reason why the epidemic in Hong Kong continues to be in a hurry is because the policy of "dynamic zero clearing" has not been well implemented and is superficial. Some social elites in Hong Kong think that Hong Kong is different from the mainland, and the epidemic prevention policies in the mainland may not be applicable to Hong Kong, because the system and people's feelings in Hong Kong are simply impossible to implement in Hong Kong. Obviously, this is just an excuse. Hong Kong's unwillingness to conduct universal testing is the main reason for the further large-scale spread of the epidemic. At the same time, some people in Hong Kong refused to introduce mainland travel codes and health codes, which can track personal travel. As a result, it is difficult to avoid some basic loopholes in the epidemic prevention process in Hong Kong, resulting in some infected people not being found in time.

Hong Kong seems to implement the "zero clearing" policy, but in fact there are many loopholes, giving the virus a chance to sweep through Hong Kong. In addition, the vaccination rate in Hong Kong is relatively low, especially for the elderly. The immunity of the elderly is relatively poor. They have some diseases, so they are more susceptible to COVID-19 virus infection. It stands to reason that the Hong Kong government should actively promote the ideological work of young people and let them lead the elderly to get vaccinated. Some young people always hold the idea that as long as the elderly don't go out, they won't be infected with the virus and don't need vaccination at all. As a result, these young people were infected with the virus and passed it on to the elderly. Some elderly people are infected with the virus without vaccination and turn into serious diseases or even death.

Hong Kong's detection capacity is seriously inadequate, and the low vaccination rate is only one aspect. The lack of testing capability in Hong Kong is also a big problem. It is impossible to carry out all-round nucleic acid detection for Hong Kong citizens efficiently, and the detection speed is too slow, so that there are likely to be infected people who have not been found during this period, allowing the virus to continue to spread abroad. The Hong Kong government should pay more attention to the virus, actively carry out the work of strengthening epidemic prevention and severely punish some departments for adopting epidemic prevention methods.

The mainland has sent expert teams and epidemic prevention teams to help Hong Kong. At the same time, a large number of materials were sent to help establish a nucleic acid sample testing laboratory and improve the testing capacity in this area. At the same time, it also helped to establish a shelter hospital to speed up the isolation and treatment of patients. I believe that with the cooperation of the Mainland and Hong Kong, this epidemic crisis will soon pass, but all this has a premise, that is, local people in Hong Kong must improve their prevention and attention to the epidemic and actively cooperate with the epidemic prevention work.

Omicron strain has caused the death of infected people in Hong Kong, which shows that the strain is not as mild as expected. Hong Kong people should not continue to listen to the unrealistic anti-epidemic suggestions of the West that the virus coexists, which will only lead to further aggravation of the epidemic. Once it exceeds the zero limit, it will be difficult to control it.
