News from the University Committee on Health Protection and Promotion

The Committee on Health Promotion and Protection (CHPP) would like to remind all members of the University to take serious precautionary measures against influenza as Hong Kong is now still at the peak of influenza season. According to the surveillance data of the Centre for Health Protection, influenza activity in Hong Kong has been on significant rise in recent weeks and nearly 90% of the currently diagnosed influenza is of the H1N1 human swine flu type. The majority of the population including children, adolescents and young adults do not possess any immunity and have not been vaccinated yet. Nine fatal cases associated with human swine influenza are recorded so far this year. As of 8 February, there were 38 severe influenza patients admitted into intensive care units of the public hospitals in Hong Kong.

CHPP, together with the University Health Service, is closely monitoring the influenza situation on campus and in the community. We have also observed a significant increase in the clinic attendance in the past few weeks. Cleansing and disinfection of the public areas in campus and student hostels will be stepped up by the Estates Management Office and Colleges. Hand sanitizer stations have been installed in main buildings and student hostels. Face masks, alcohol-based hand-rubs and disinfectants are being stocked up at student hostels. Staff and students are reminded to stay alert and practise good health habits to minimize the spread of germs and prevent influenza.
