Surge of mycoplasma pneumoniae / Disposable tableware survey
On Wednesday’s Backchat, we're talking about the recent surge in pneumonia and respiratory illness in parts of the world.
The World Health Organisation requested more information on these cases on the mainland last week, and this had attracted global attention.
But the WHO said health authorities there have not detected any unusual or novel pathogens.
A surge in these illnesses have also been recorded in parts of Europe and the United States.
How concerned should we be? Is this just a part of the winter flu season? Does it show that immunity among the population remains low after Covid lockdowns?
After 9:45am, we look at a new survey on the use of plastic cutlery in Hong Kong.
Let us know what you think. You can leave a message on our Facebook page, email us at backchat@rthk.hk, or call us on 23388266.

On Monday’s Backchat, we’re talking about agriculture and organic farming. While Hong Kong remains heavily dependent on the mainland for imports of vegetables, there are calls for the territory to increase self-sufficiency with more home-grown produce. With the government placing an emphasis on sustainable farming and fishing, we’ll be asking what needs to be done if the sector is to thrive, through finance, land use and technological support. Would urban agriculture enhance our quality of life?
After 9:45, we’ll be looking at the reopening of Cruise Terminal for international cruises, after three
years of the pandemic.
