from MOH report 30 August 2021:

Summary of local situation

• As of 30 August 2021, 12pm, the Ministry of Health (MOH) has confirmed and verified that there are 147 cases of locally transmitted COVID-19 infection and 8 imported cases.
• 441 cases are currently warded in hospital. Most are well and under observation. There are currently 19 cases of serious illness requiring oxygen supplementation, and 5 in critical condition in the intensive care unit (ICU).
• Over the last 28 days, the percentage of unvaccinated who became severely ill or died is 9.3%, while that for the fully vaccinated is 1.3%.
• As of 29 August 2021, 80% of our population has completed their full regimen/ received two doses of COVID-19 vaccines, and 83% has received at least one dose.

Update on vaccination progress

As of 29 August 2021, we have administered a total of 8,695,034 doses of COVID-19 vaccines under the national vaccination programme (Pfizer-BioNTech Comirnaty and Moderna), covering 4,507,685 individuals, with 4,309,977 individuals having completed the full vaccination regimen.

2. In addition, 166,142 doses of other vaccines recognised in the World Health Organization’s Emergency Use Listing (WHO EUL) have been administered as of 29 August 2021, covering 85,584 individuals. In total, 80% of our population has completed their full regimen/ received two doses of COVID-19 vaccines, and 83% has received at least one dose.

Condition of hospitalised cases

3. 441 cases are currently warded in hospital. There are currently 19 cases of serious illness requiring oxygen supplementation, and 5 in critical condition in the ICU. Of those who have fallen very ill, 15 are seniors above 60 years, of whom 9 are completely unvaccinated or partially vaccinated.

4. There is continuing evidence that almost all fully-vaccinated individuals do not suffer serious disease when infected, unless if they had underlying medical conditions that made them more susceptible. Over the last 28 days, the percentage of unvaccinated who became severely ill or died is 9.3%, while that for the fully vaccinated is 1.3%.

Most are well and under observation. There are currently 24 cases of serious illness requiring oxygen supplementation, and 5 in critical condition in the intensive care unit (ICU). Over the last 28 days, the percentage of unvaccinated who became severely ill or died is 6.7%, while that for the fully vaccinated is 0.9%. As of 4 September 2021, 81% of our population has completed their full regimen/ received two doses of COVID-19 vaccines, and 83% has received at least one dose.

Update on vaccination progress

1. As of 4 September 2021, we have administered a total of 8,783,111 doses of COVID-19 vaccines under the national vaccination programme (Pfizer-BioNTech Comirnaty and Moderna), covering 4,531,281 individuals, with 4,370,515 individuals having completed the full vaccination regimen.

2. In addition, 170,577 doses of other vaccines recognised in the World Health Organization’s Emergency Use Listing (WHO EUL) have been administered as of 4 September 2021, covering 86,080 individuals. In total, 81% of our population has completed their full regimen/ received two doses of COVID-19 vaccines, and 83% has received at least one dose.

Condition of hospitalised cases

3. 653 cases are currently warded in hospital. There are currently 24 cases of serious illness requiring oxygen supplementation, and 5 in critical condition in the ICU. Of those who have fallen very ill, 22 are seniors above 60 years, of whom 11 are completely unvaccinated or partially vaccinated.

4. There is continuing evidence that almost all fully-vaccinated individuals do not suffer serious disease when infected, unless if they had underlying medical conditions that made them more susceptible. Over the last 28 days, the percentage of unvaccinated who became severely ill or died is 6.7%, while that for the fully vaccinated is 0.9%.
