Delta can make vaccinated people highly infectious, but jabs still work: Experts


South China Morning Post
A young Hongkonger who returned from the United States caused a stir earlier this month when he not only tested positive for Covid-19, but was also found to be highly infectious.
What made the case unusual was that the 27-year-old man was fully vaccinated in Hong Kong before his two-week trip to the US.
But medical experts insist there is no cause for alarm, with Professor David Hui Shu-cheong of Chinese University saying it was thanks to Hong Kong s tough quarantine and contact-tracing regime that there had been no outbreak so far from the case.

Coronavirus: time to review Hong Kong's quarantine exemptions for diplomats and others, health experts say


Hong Kong’s quarantine exemptions for diplomats and others deemed to have crucial jobs are in need of review, health experts have said after a consulate employee’s two children tested positive for Covid-19 during their home isolation period.
The call came as the city confirmed five imported infections on Wednesday. The group included the two children – siblings from Saudi Arabia – and one case each from Cambodia, the United Arab Emirates and Bangladesh.
The city’s tally of confirmed infections now stands at 11,970, with 212 related deaths. Fewer than five people tested preliminary-positive for the coronavirus.
