Hong Kong will start offering booster shots to the elderly and those under high-risk groups from next Thursday. About 24,500 people had signed up online for the third vaccine dose as of 8pm on Friday, the first day bookings became available. "For those who had received the Sinovac vaccine, they may need to take the booster shot earlier, but we still need to prioritise in the end."
