More than half of Hongkongers willing to stick with Covid preventive measures
Chinese University study shows most interviewees consistently backed practices such as wearing masks in public places, using alcohol-based sanitisers.
More than half of Hongkongers have expressed a willingness to continue Covid-19 preventive measures, such as wearing masks, while the majority are reluctant to get another booster shot, a university study has found.
The paper, published by Chinese University on Monday, showed most interviewees approved of various health measures, including covering up while indoors and using alcohol-based sanitisers, representing a higher proportion than before the start of the pandemic in early 2020.
Members of The Jockey Club School of Public Health and Primary Care, which is part of the university’s medical faculty, surveyed 611 respondents in March, asking interviewees what disease prevention measures they had taken before and after the pandemic.
