HKUMed study reveals low immunity against H3N2 strain in Hong Kong; early vaccination urged
Flu activity has surged in many parts of the Northern Hemisphere, driven primarily by a newly emerged H3N2 strain known as 'subclade K'. A research team led by the Department of Microbiology and the Department of Medicine, both under the School of Clinical Medicine at the LKS Faculty of Medicine of the University of Hong Kong (HKUMed), has found that most hospital patients in Hong Kong have little to undetectable levels of neutralising antibodies against this mutated strain. HKUMed researchers strongly advise the public to get vaccinated as soon as possible.
