街頭民調：七成三人不接種新冠疫苗 憂慮疫苗成效

【Now新聞台】首批新冠病毒疫苗預計首季到港，本台在銅鑼灣進行街頭民調，六十名受訪者中，有七成三人表示不會接種，擔心疫苗技術未成熟，希望再觀察多一段時間。政府專家顧問許樹昌就認為，接種疫苗的好處多於副作用，呼籲巿民把握機會接種。

在剛過去的周日，我們在銅鑼灣街頭訪問了60位市民會否接種新冠疫苗，當中44人，即七成三人表示不會。很多受訪者擔心新冠疫苗技術未成熟，希望再觀察多一段時間。

湯小姐：「我擔心年紀大，注射後反應是如何呢？」

李先生：「不敢拿自己生命來『較飛』，測試報告未能作準，起碼先實行數年。」

朱先生：「副作用暫時未清楚，如果注射後三年、四年出現副作用，那就後悔莫及。」

除夕夜街上人流多 不排除有隱形個案 專家：確診數字或增

昨日是2020年最後一日，雖然新冠肺炎疫情未了，仍有不少市民與親友外出一同倒數迎接新一年。醫學會傳染病顧問委員會聯席主席曾祈殷今早(1日)在電台節目表示，雖然近日確診數字稍有改善，但除夕夜街上人頭湧湧，他認為跨年活動及聖誕聚會令確診數字上升亦不出奇，並相信確診宗數字會於本月首個星期反映出來。

曾指出，現時有40多幢樓宇居民要接受強制檢測，不排除會找到隱形個案，但近日正值節日，市民可能會延遲交樣本，形容現時變相有如九龍東強制檢測篩查，又指在樓齡高的公營房屋若出現確診個案，可能是透過渠管等傳播病毒。他預計約有4至5萬人需要接受強制檢測，若當局希望於7日內完成，即平均每日要做多逾1萬個檢測，即需要提升多十分一的檢測能力才可應付，並重申應於48小時內得出報告並通知受檢疫人士。

Happy New Year.

Trump-backing anti-maskers storm California shop: ‘I don’t want underwear over my face!’

A crowd of around 50 maskless people stormed into a grocery store in California, flouting safety guidelines, in what they said was a protest against mask restrictions getting “out of hand”.

Los Angeles police were called to the grocery store in Erewhon Market in the Fairfax district after the crowd began aggressively questioning the store’s employees and customers, according to a report by KTLA TV.

The police said the crowd was protesting safety guidelines by either taking off their masks inside the store or entering without a face covering.

The protesters were heard chanting slogans like “Open up LA!” One person yelled: “They want you to wear a mask, they want you to lock down!”

A bystander, Ira Brian Miller, posted the video of the crowd chanting and aggressively pushing people in order to enter the store. Speaking to the LA Times, Mr Miller, a resident of West Hollywood, said the crowd was “pushing their way in.”

I was just trying to buy some groceries at @ErewhonMarket when 50 anti-maskers stormed the entrance in a stampede. Wtf. Please stay safe, everyone. Wear a mask. 😷 pic.twitter.com/yy9IZAYpui

“They were trying to push the workers out of the way for them to enter the store,” said Mr Miller. He also said he heard protesters asking people to take off their mask.

A woman who was part of the protest wearing a red "MAGA" hat told the Daily Beast: "The masks do nothing! That's why you can wear anything! I don't wear underwear over my face! I'll pull off my underwear right now and put them over my face."

KTLA News quoted another protester saying they showed up because they feel coronavirus restrictions have gotten out of hand.

“We’re not here coughing everything, smearing everything,” said Jason Traver, one of the organisers of the protest. “We just want to shop, we want to take our own precautions that we’ve been doing all of our lives, and we’ll be fine.”

Mr Traver also said he feels the vaccine will be “a whole can of worms” and he’d “rather people just step up and fight.”

The police said the situation was eventually brought under control and the protesters left the store. They said no arrests were made in the incident.

Los Angeles County has seen over 746,000 cases of coronavirus so far with over 9,000 deaths. A record 7,181 people were hospitalised with Covid-19 in LA on Tuesday.

我又9up 下

某程度上我又覺得唔可以完全怪責晒班熱狗
實際上係香港嘅政治生態所做成
大家都唔相信港共政權
覺得防疫=endorse 政權
所以先會有一班人走出嚟話武漢肺炎just a flu, 肺炎係政府用嚟扼殺市民自由嘅工具

我人在澳洲，基本上唔少澳洲人比起香港班恐懼撚更加恐懼
10 幾單就嘈話要lockdown
南澳試過其中1 日有15 單就即晚lockdown
所以澳洲嘅疫情基本上係控制得數一數二

矛盾嘅位係
港共政權係有心用疫情扼殺市民自由，例如黑警用599G 係咁罰人錢
但唔防疫，呢場疫情唔可以係短時間內完結
只可以話，香港人真係慘
錯嘅只係香港政府

利申：唔係恐懼撚，係澳洲唔帶口罩，聖誕新年照出街玩

班熱狗 should then blame the 香港特衰政府 rather than play down the 支那武漢肺炎.

I just blame the 香港特衰政府 without down playing the 支那武漢肺炎.

NHK【速報】：東京都 783人感染確認 週五紀錄第二高

新增42宗確診 36宗本地個案中13宗源頭不明

本港新增42新型肺炎確診，包括6宗輸入個案及36宗本地個案，當中13宗感染源頭不明。另外，有30多宗初步確診個案。

衞生防護中心傳染病處主任張竹君說，新增個案包括聯合醫院2D病房一名病人服務助理，在檢疫期間確診，至今聯合醫院群組有12名病人及9名員工確診，佛教醫院有一名病人確診。

被問到昨日公布曾離院的東區醫院確診病人，曾乘搭幾次巴士，張竹君表示，確診者可能曾乘搭很多交通工具，相比起的士，當局較難追蹤某一輛巴士，亦有一定困難，因此市民乘搭交通工具，要與他人保持距離及戴好口罩。如接觸過公共設施要清洗雙手。

More infectious COVID-19 variant found in Florida - state officials

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A more infections variant of COVID-19 that has swept through the United Kingdom has been identified in Florida, state health officials said on Thursday, marking the third known U.S. state to identify such a case.

The Florida Department of Health said the case involved a male in his 20s in Martin County with no history of travel. Two other cases involving the UK variant have been identified in Colorado and California.

"The Department is working with the CDC (U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) on this investigation," it tweeted.

On Wednesday, California Governor Gavin Newsom said the coronavirus variant B.1.1.7 had been identified in Southern California.

A day earlier, Colorado Governor Jared Polis said the variant had been identified there, while another state health official said a second possible case was being investigated.

The cases, found in individuals who had not recent traveled, showed the likely community spread of the variant from person-to-person in the United States. Health experts have said they believe the new variant is more infectious but recently approved vaccines should provide protection against it.

Bangkok to close schools for two weeks as number of COVID-19 cases rise

BANGKOK (Reuters) - The Thai capital of Bangkok will close all schools for two weeks after the New Year holiday as it tightens measures to control a new wave of the coronavirus pandemic, the city said on Friday.

Thailand confirmed 279 new coronavirus cases on Friday, with the majority of them linked to a cluster among migrant workers in Samut Sakhon province south of Bangkok, and another cluster linked to illegal gambling dens that started in the eastern province of Rayong.

These new clusters have started to spread into Bangkok, prompting the city's administrator to tighten measures to curb the spread of the virus.

"We begin to detect new cases linked to students and other service businesses," said Pongsakorn Kwanmuang, the spokesman for the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration.

"Therefore we decided to close more places," he said.

All schools, daycare centres for the young and elderly, preschool and tutorial centres will be close from January 4 to 17 while other public facilities including amusement parks, playgrounds, public baths and massage parlours will be closed starting from Saturday, he said.

Pongsakorn also said the city is considering restrictions on eating-in at restaurants but said that more discussions were needed with the government COVID-19 taskforce on Saturday.

Thailand recorded two new deaths from coronavirus on Friday, taking the total number of infections to 7,163 and the number of deaths to 63 since the outbreak started last January.

The majority of the new cases resulted from local transmission of the disease while six were imported from abroad, the government COVID-19 taskforce said.

新冠肺炎：世衞證有4種變種病毒 部分傳播力更強

外媒周五（1日）報道，世界衞生組織（WHO）發表報告指，自新冠肺炎疫情爆發以來，已有4種變種病毒出現，包括最早的突變及先後在丹麥、英國、南非發現的變種病毒，其中英國變種病毒近日更首度攻入內地。但世衞指出，尚未有證據證明變種病毒會引起更嚴重的疾病，但除丹麥變種病毒外，其他的傳播力都更強。

世衞正式通報新冠病毒自出現以來的主要變異情況，首先見於去年1月底至2月初，新冠病毒出現「D614G」突變，逐漸取代最初發現的毒株，更具傳染性，至去年6月成為全球主要傳播形式。丹麥北日德蘭半島去年8至9月發現另一種被稱為「Cluster 5」的變種病毒，與養殖場水貂之間的感染有關，隨後傳染人類，但未有廣泛傳播，當時只發現12宗病例。

英國上月14日向世衞通報告一種命名為「VOC 202012/01」的變種病毒，最初在英格蘭東南部出現，更具傳染力，但不會引起更嚴重的疾病，亦不影響檢測。世衞表示，組織在全球按地域劃設的6個區域中，其中5區出現英國變種新冠病毒，涉及其他31個國家和地區。南非上月18日亦宣布，發現命名為「501Y.V2」的變種病毒，在該國迅速傳播，並在另外4個國家發現其蹤迹。

世衞呼籲各國採取更嚴格的公共衞生防疫措施，繼續遵守社交距離指引，阻止變種病毒進一步擴散；同時建議大規模進行新冠病毒檢測，以監察傳播範圍及病毒有否變種。當局亦建議各國的衞生組織與旅行、運輸和旅遊部門合作，確保來往旅客的國家有通報變種病毒的情況，以防止病毒傳播；強調各國應基於風險及實際情況，採取有條理的措施，並依次優先安排必要的旅遊。

唔可以習非成是
有錯就要迫佢改正

Turkey slammed its doors to travelers from Britain on Friday, saying that it had found 15 infections with the new, more transmissible variant of the virus that first emerged in England. All were among recent arrivals from the United Kingdom.

Turkey’s health minister, Fahrettin Koca, issued a statement saying that the 15 people infected with the variant were in isolation and that their contacts were being traced and placed under quarantine. In countrywide checks, the statement said, the virus had not been detected in anyone other than travelers who arrived from Britain.

The finding brings the number of countries that have detected the variant to at least 33 since Britain announced finding it on Dec. 8, and the number of countries barring travelers arriving from Britain to more than 40. Some countries are also imposing restrictions on travelers, including U.S. citizens, who in recent weeks visited the countries where the variant has been detected.

The Philippines expanded restrictions on travelers from Britain and 18 other countries, adding the United States after a third state, Florida, reported an infection involving the variant. Many countries have already restricted travel from the United States because of its staggering number of infections — the most in the world.

The list of countries that have identified infections with the variant has been growing rapidly, and as of Friday includes — besides the United States, Britain and Turkey — Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Iceland, India, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Jordan, Lebanon, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway, Pakistan, Portugal, Singapore, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, and the United Arab Emirates.
