Appointment for second booster dose to open from 10:00 tomorrow; People at high risk for severe illness or death should get vaccinated asap

The Novel Coronavirus Response and Coordination Centre states that elderly persons and immunosuppressed individuals are much more susceptible to severe illness, hospitalization and death than the general population if infected with COVID-19. In the recent epidemic in Macao, there were 6 deaths involving infected elderly people. According to the data on earlier outbreaks in the neighbouring regions, the majority of death cases were elderly, and the risk of death in unvaccinated people was 3 to 6 times, 17 to 18 times, and 53 to 75 times as high as those who have received 1 dose, 2 doses and 3 doses respectively; this fully demonstrates the immense protection that booster vaccination offers to the elderly. In addition, recent data from the World Health Organization (WHO) show that the second booster dose can effectively enhance antibody levels and reduce breakthrough infections, increasing the effectiveness of preventing severe illness or death.
