The epidemic situation in Hong Kong has not eased, and the number of confirmed cases in the day has exceeded 10,000.

The Centre for Health Protection of the Department of Health announced today (22nd) 61 new confirmed cases.

A patient service assistant at the Prince of Wales Hospital made a preliminary diagnosis. He went to work last Wednesday (20th). Yesterday he had a fever and went to the clinic staff for consultation. He was responsible for assisting the clinic’s medical staff to take care of the patients. They were wearing appropriate personal protective equipment. They were listed as close contacts, but three colleagues were required to undergo quarantine because they had eaten together separately. The clinic staff suspended services and disinfected.

The Chief Administrative Manager (Medical Effectiveness and Technology Management) of the Hospital Authority, Yu Huiling, said that the patient service assistant who was initially diagnosed had no contact with confirmed patients. He believed that the chance of nosocomial infection was low and he did not live in a building requiring mandatory testing. Conduct an epidemiological investigation.

Yu Huiling once again reminded her colleagues to eat separately and at different times to prevent the spread of the virus.

In addition, a nurse in the North District Hospital was diagnosed a few days ago. Yu Huiling said that the epidemiological investigation is still ongoing, but it is believed to be related to the diagnosis by a nurse in Queen Elizabeth Hospital.

As for the confirmed nurse at Princess Margaret Hospital (#9869), a family member was diagnosed earlier, and it is believed that the source of the infection came from the community.

As of today, the HA has a total of 81 million surgical masks, 7.4 million respirators, 9.8 million face masks, and 11.2 million protective clothing, which can be used for 6 months.
