Covid-19: Facebook to launch new features in bid to boost vaccine uptake in Hong Kong


Facebook is set to launch a campaign to encourage Hong Kong people to get their coronavirus jab in what has been described as an initiative to support efforts by city’s health authorities to increase the vaccination rate.

The campaign will introduce two new features on the platform — one to facilitate more convenient vaccination bookings and another to encourage others to be vaccinated.

Users of the social media platform will be informed of who is eligible for a vaccination and be directed to a government site to locate a nearby vaccination provider. Private clinics as well as general out-patient clinics have been administering the vaccines in conjunction with the government’s community vaccination centres since late February.
