COVID cases have been escalating in Hong Kong recently. Researchers found that over 30 percent of elders who are not fully vaccinated tended to procrastinate or not get any COVID jabs. Some of them worried about the safety of getting the vaccines. Twelve percent of respondents and their families have not reported their positive results after taking rapid antigen tests (RAT).
