Social Restrictions Kick In: Things you can still do in Hong Kong

<div class="el__leafmedia el__leafmedia--sourced-paragraph">
Children have rarely suffered a serious blow from COVID-19 but a jab for school going children would be a huge step towards normalcy, cutting down on severe cases of illness and ensuring a regular academic year. And in a highly anticipated announcement,&nbsp;data from BioNTech clinical trials published on Monday shows that a lower dose of the COVID-19 vaccine – roughly one-third&nbsp;the amount given to adults and teens — is safe and effective in cutting down COVID-19 infection in children as young as five.
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-61163 size-full" src="//www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Untitled-design-25.png" alt="" width="600" height="337" srcset="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Untitled-design-25.png 600w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Untitled-design-25-200x112.png 200w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Untitled-design-25-499x280.png 499w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Untitled-design-25-120x67.png 120w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Untitled-design-25-500x281.png 500w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Untitled-design-25-400x225.png 400w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" />
The positive news from Pfizer-BioNtech research coincides with clinical trials being simultaneously conducted by&nbsp;Sinopharm’s Beijing Institute of Biological Products which found that its two-dose shot, BBIBP-CorV, widely used in China&#8217;s immunization program, triggers a &#8220;robust immune response&#8221; in children as little as three to 17.&nbsp;
The news comes at a&nbsp;time when the highly contagious Delta variant of COVID-19 has spread to three coastal cities in China –&nbsp;Putian, Xiamen, Quanzhou – putting nearly 50 school going children in isolation, a safe and effective vaccine for the younger age group was the need of the hour. Scroll below for all the details:
Clinical trials &#8211; BioNTech Vaccine
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-61164 size-full" src="//www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Untitled-design-26.png" alt="" width="700" height="466" srcset="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Untitled-design-26.png 700w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Untitled-design-26-200x133.png 200w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Untitled-design-26-421x280.png 421w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Untitled-design-26-120x80.png 120w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Untitled-design-26-500x333.png 500w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Untitled-design-26-400x266.png 400w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Untitled-design-26-600x399.png 600w" sizes="(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px" />
BioNtech conducted the research on 2,268 participants aged five to 11 and gave them two doses of the vaccine, three weeks apart. A 10-microgram dose was selected for children – that&#8217;s one-third of the 30-microgram dose given to teens and adults.&nbsp;
<blockquote>
The 10 microgram dose was carefully selected as the preferred dose for safety, tolerability and immunogenicity in children 5 to 11 years of age – Pfixer-BioNTech in a&nbsp;press statement.&nbsp;
</blockquote>
</div>
A high level of antibodies after the vaccination determines the efficacy of the jab. Blood work post the trial revealed a &#8220;strong immune response in this cohort of children one month after the second dose&#8221;, according to the pharma company spokesperson. Complete data of the clinical trial will need to be submitted to the US Food and Drug Administration for peer review and scrutinized by regulators for approvals, the process is expected to be completed by the end of September and if everything is on track, vaccines for this age group might be available for use by Halloween.&nbsp;
The vaccine will have to meet the highest standards of safety before it gets the final clearance from the US FDA and World Health Organisation. A Pfizer-BioNTech spokesperson said that there&nbsp;were no instances of myocarditis, a type of heart inflammation linked with mRNA vaccines, in the trial but clinically 1 in 5,000 teenage boys run the risk of critical side effects of heart muscle inflammation after the shot. The company will now start clinical trials on&nbsp;children as young as 6 months &#8220;as soon as the fourth quarter of this year.&#8221;

Unlike the BioNTech vaccine which uses the mRNA technology, Sinopharm&#8217;s BBIBP-CorV uses inactivated viruses and carries a 79% efficacy rate in third phase clinical trials. According to the Ministry of Education in China, a billion doses of it have already been administered till date in the adult and teen population, including 91% of the 12 to 17 year olds who have already taken the jab without any known side-effects.</div>

Phase three research is ongoing in the United Arab Emirates, where children as young as three are enlisted in the study. Till date, critical reactions were not observed except for one in a child with known food allergies, other side-effects have been &#8220;mostly mild to moderate&#8221;. The vaccine has been approved on an emergency basis for use on children age three to 17 in China, though immunizations have been focused on 12 and above.</div>

Spain was in one of Europe&#8217;s strictest lockdowns in the spring of 2020. Battered in both the number of infections and casualties, the country bounced back for the summer of 2020 but again entered a strict lockdown from November 2020 to May 2021. The restrictions have now eased and as of June 7, fully vaccinated travellers can enter this laidback country with just the proof of vaccination and other details registered on the&nbsp;<a href="https://visaguide.world/europe/spain-visa/tourist-visitor/#spain-tourist-visa-requirements">Spain Travel Health website</a>.&nbsp;

Travel to America is a bit tricky to navigate. At the moment, vaccinated individuals are allowed to land in the country and roam around without quarantine but restrictions can vary from state-to-state. By and large, Hong Kong is on the &#8216;safest level&#8217; of COVID-hit countries in the&nbsp;US Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) list.&nbsp;
&nbsp;6. Belize&nbsp;
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-59627" src="//www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Belize–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-421x280.jpg" alt="" width="421" height="280" srcset="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Belize–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-421x280.jpg 421w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Belize–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-200x133.jpg 200w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Belize–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-120x80.jpg 120w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Belize–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-500x333.jpg 500w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Belize–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-400x266.jpg 400w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Belize–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-600x399.jpg 600w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Belize–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu.jpg 700w" sizes="(max-width: 421px) 100vw, 421px" />

One of the most popular holiday destinations, Greece is welcoming double vaxxed travellers with a negative PCR test but COVID-19 cases there are on the rise. At the time of publishing the story, more than 2,600 positive cases were recorded in a single day and several countries have raised red flags for travel to this country. If Greece is still on your itinerary, fill up the&nbsp;<a href="https://travel.gov.gr/#/user/login" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Passenger Locator Form</a>&nbsp;before arrival.&nbsp;
8. Thailand
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-59617" src="//www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Thailand–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-421x280.jpg" alt="" width="421" height="280" srcset="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Thailand–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-421x280.jpg 421w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Thailand–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-200x133.jpg 200w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Thailand–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-120x80.jpg 120w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Thailand–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-500x333.jpg 500w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Thailand–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-400x266.jpg 400w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Thailand–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-600x399.jpg 600w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Thailand–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu.jpg 700w" sizes="(max-width: 421px) 100vw, 421px" />
Thailand has the same travel requirements as most countries but keep a tab on the news before booking your stay here. Even though travel is open, the country is battling its worst COVID-19 wave since January 2020. Infections and deaths are both on the rise and unless travel to this island nation is absolutely essential, we&#8217;d say, avoid.&nbsp;
9. Georgia
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-59622" src="//www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Georgia–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-421x280.jpg" alt="" width="421" height="280" srcset="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Georgia–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-421x280.jpg 421w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Georgia–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-200x133.jpg 200w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Georgia–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-120x80.jpg 120w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Georgia–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-500x333.jpg 500w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Georgia–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-400x266.jpg 400w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Georgia–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-600x399.jpg 600w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Georgia–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu.jpg 700w" sizes="(max-width: 421px) 100vw, 421px" />
Fully vaccinated travellers have zero restrictions before travelling to Georgia and no quarantine requirement on landing. Even though Hong Kong government does not have travel warnings in place, given the recent spate of COVID-19 cases here, the US CDC recommends avoiding all unnecessary travel to this beautiful Caucasin country.&nbsp;
10. Seychelles
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-59618" src="//www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Seychelles–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-461x280.jpg" alt="" width="461" height="280" srcset="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Seychelles–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-461x280.jpg 461w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Seychelles–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-200x122.jpg 200w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Seychelles–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-120x73.jpg 120w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Seychelles–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-500x304.jpg 500w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Seychelles–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-400x243.jpg 400w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Seychelles–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu-600x365.jpg 600w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Seychelles–COVID-19-Travel–HongKong–Gafencu.jpg 767w" sizes="(max-width: 461px) 100vw, 461px" />
Currently this gorgeous island nation has no quarantine or travel restrictions for vaccinated travellers. The vaccination rate in the local population has been as high as 71%, clearly they&#8217;ve reached the herd-immunity threshold for COVID infections.&nbsp;

Hong Kong travel rules for the vaccinated

After more than a year long of social distancing and travel restrictions, Hongkongers can finally be more at ease now that Covid-19 vaccinations have been made accessible city-wide. However, whether you have taken your second dose or are still waiting on your first, there are certain precautions that are worth noting post-vaccination. Here are a few of the questions regarding what you can do and are advised not to do.

Do I need to wear a mask?&nbsp; 
Although getting vaccinated reduces the risk of virus transmission, it still takes two weeks to build up a resistance and you have to be fully vaccinated (two doses). Even then, it is not certain how much the vaccine reduces transmission. So, wearing a mask in public spaces,&nbsp;and continuing risk-reduction measures like washing hands regularly and social distancing in crowded spaces are still advisable.
Can I throw / attend a party?&nbsp; 
Gatherings among friends and family are much safer if every individual in the group has been fully vaccinated. In a recent press conference, it was announced that dine-in restrictions for groups will be relaxed if every member of the group and staff are fully vaccinated.&nbsp;
Can I visit my elderly parents? 
The months-long visiting restrictions imposed on visitors at elderly homes saw an unfortunate rise in mental health problems and a &#8216;loneliness epidemic&#8217;. Thankfully, it was recently announced that fully vaccinated persons will be able to visit their families in elderly homes and hospitals again.&nbsp;
Can I visit families with children? 
Although children of ages 16 and below are not advised to be vaccinated, as long as a person is fully vaccinated and are limiting gatherings to small groups,&nbsp;the risk of virus transmission is reduced and is generally safer.
Can I travel out of Hong Kong? 
Restrictions on travel in the near future could include quarantine-free travel bubbles for fully vaccinated persons. However, as it stands in the meantime, persons arriving in Hong Kong still have to quarantine at a hotel for three weeks.&nbsp;
In the case of China, travelling across the boarder will need strong reason and documentation, though taking a vaccine made in China will increase your chances of approval.&nbsp;
Will I be immune to other variants of Covid-19 mutations? 
A number of countries including United Kingdom, Brazil and South Africa have reported mutated strains of the Covid-19 virus which has prompted the local government to consider its next steps in procuring a new generation of vaccines that will better protect the public from Covid-19 mutations, according to Secretary for Food and Health Sophia Chan.

Sleek Designer Gloves
It’s almost impossible not to get in contact with open surfaces when we’re out of the house. Surfaces like handrails, countertops, elevator buttons can hold viruses for up to 72 hours, but <a href="https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc2004973">research</a> suggests that it isn&#8217;t as easy for viruses to remain on the fabric. That’s good news for fashionistas who don’t want to get on the bandwagon of wearing surgical gloves. A sleek pair like the Hermes lambskin with silk lining <a href="https://www.hermes.com/hk/en/product/soya-gloves-H005060GT01065/">Soya Gloves</a> or the Gucci <a href="https://www.farfetch.com/hk/shopping/women/gucci-macrame-lace-gloves-item-15380763.aspx?storeid=9359">Mmacrame Lace&nbsp;Gloves</a> could add some confidence to your already put together look.

Wearable Air Purifier Necklaces
There are times throughout the day when you can’t help but take our mask off, like when you have meals or when you&#8217;re working at your office desk.

Another impressive model is the <a href="https://www.germanpool.com/eng/products/ap_pap.php?mdl=020">German Pool</a> personal air purifier which is small enough to fit in your pocket or even wear around your neck as it cleans the air around you almost <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7R6k1mHgpg">instantly</a>.
