The new crown pneumonia epidemic in Hong Kong has not yet subsided. The news is that yesterday (29th) a female inmate in the Yuen Long nursing home in his seventies was initially diagnosed.
The Secretary-General of the Elderly Services Association, Chen Yongzhou, stated on the TV and TV program this morning (30th) that the industry was very nervous about this news. Originally, 200 to 300 residential care homes planned to launch special visits for the Mid-Autumn Festival. The arrangement was suspended and changed to a video visit.
The Secretary-General of the Elderly Services Association, Chen Yongzhou, said that he understands the feelings of family members "want to see" residents, but the industry was very nervous yesterday after hearing the initial diagnosis of the Yuen Long nursing homes. There were originally plans to launch 200 to 300 homes. The special visit arrangements for the Mid-Autumn Festival are now temporarily suspended for most of the arrangements and changed to video visits.
He also pointed out that doing a good job in epidemic prevention should not ignore the emotions of the elderly. Mooncakes and fruit will be distributed in the homes on the Mid-Autumn Festival. "It's like a house business person doing the festival. The only pity is that you don't see the house business person."
Chen Yongzhou said frankly that the ventilation equipment of some old hospitals is not ideal and the environment is crowded, which makes it difficult to prevent the epidemic. He should take the opportunity to review and install new equipment.
Yuan Guoyong, the chair professor of the Department of Microbiology at the University of Hong Kong, suggested that the per capita area of the homes should be at least 8 square meters, and the bed spacing should be at least one meter. Chen pointed out that most homes in Hong Kong are close to this level, and most of the beds are between beds. The partition is not difficult to do.
