I don't think you can get immunized for hep c just a and b.

But it's difficult to get Hep C...like it's difficult to get Aids.

I'm not sure why I specified hep C... But yeah, just make sure you are immunized against the hepatitis that is easy to get from dirty people :)

skyxx 05-31-2009 11:19 PM

It's fine, I just got back from HK(Stayed at the Royal Plaza) and yes make sure you get your Hep shots.... :) By the way, what's up with Temple street being filled with Caucasian Tourist....lol

or use hand sanitizer like you suggested.

Hm.. do you know if we're allowed to bring hand sanitizer through the airport since it does contain a bit of alcohol..

anyways.. thanks for the idea. I'll buy myself many small cartages of hand sanitizer

Which hep stops are we talking about? A and B?

umm.. didn't we all do those in high school and elementary?

skyxx 05-31-2009 11:36 PM

^ It's best if you go see your family doctor for a clear report but I believe in High school you indeed did get shots but I think those shots last for 10 years max.

Oh and yes, bring your own hand sanitizers, but with the recent "Virus". Most places have a readily available(Free) Hand sanitizer right beside doors and elevators. Plus most large malls/hotels shopping centers clean the handles a billion times a day...lol I think Hong kong is the most paranoid out of everyone.

shenmecar 06-03-2009 03:43 PM

do you still get quarantined?

skyxx 06-05-2009 01:29 PM

^ If you're talking about me, No. The hotel's fine. It's actually pretty good since it's right beside the Mall along with the Fa Yuen/Tong choi Streets and has free shuttle to TST. :)

dark0821 06-08-2009 11:09 AM

its fine... dun wry abt it...swine flu is.. well.. ya..

6insomnia9 06-08-2009 11:59 AM

Swine flu is just like the regular flu, the media blew it out of proportions again.

SlySi 06-17-2009 10:29 AM

Was just there for 2 weeks. May 22-June 7th.

Nothing to worry about.
They are very cautious with everyone entering HK/China.

They will do a heat scan when you enter the HK Airport.
I dont do well with heat, so I was sweating when I got off the plane. (Dang HK is hot right now) anyways, they did a ear check to see if I was sick.
At the hotel in HK they did temperature checks when you checkin and compare when you check out.
I trained into Guangzhou a few days later and they also did temperature checks at the border and on the train and when you got off the train.

Other than them be very cautious, you have nothing to worry about.

wc19 06-19-2009 02:52 AM

i'm currently in hk right now and its fine. Just more people being cautious wearing masks but other than that everything is fine. Through customs you have to fill out a health confirmation form and people make sure you are fine and stuff. super hott here!!!

Ikkaku 06-19-2009 08:05 AM

Not everybody wearing the mask is paranoid about swine flu. Some of the people wear it because they were already sick, or they're trying to avoid the dust outside. Plenty of people were wearing it when I was there for Christmas.

orange7 06-25-2009 12:04 PM

Hey, my friend just told me that when my plane reaches China, I will be locked up for 10 days for the flu inspection.

IS this true??

My vacation is only 19days long and having 10days locked up would really suck.

I think you would only be quarantined if you exhibit symptoms of H1N1. I doubt they quarantine every single person that comes through.

Just hope that nobody in your plane has the symptoms...

Your friends must have a lot of fun playing with you, orange7. You are a fool (despite the fact that you seem like a nice person)

I'm pretty sure they just do a quick temperature check and let you go, or at least that's what they did when I went to China last month.

If you don't mind me asking, whereabouts are you going in China?

sTi-K 06-26-2009 10:43 AM

theres no way they'll lock u up for 10 days.. unless u came from Mexico?

just go and have fun in HK /China and u will be glad u went!

Starting from Vancouver, I'll fly to Japan to transfer into another plane that goes straight to Guang Zhou. At Guang Zhou, I'll be picked up by relatives and get driven to their homes to rest a bit or get locked up for 10 days. Afterwards, I'll be moving around a bit.
