The new crown pneumonia variant virus entered the local community for the first time in mid-April. One of the infected Filipino domestic helpers lived in Block 11 of Yue Tao Heen in Yingwan Garden, Tung Chung. More than 1,000 residents of 400 households in the entire building had to be evacuated to the Penny's Bay Quarantine Center Isolate for 21 days.

After 8 nights of quarantine, they were allowed to "release" and go home early. According to reports, there are still dozens of residents who have not been issued a quarantine order (QO) at all.

Some frontline personnel were dissatisfied with the arrangement of the Department of Health, saying that they often did not send enough doctors to issue quarantine orders at the quarantine site, resulting in slow and bureaucratic operations.

The Department of Health has not yet responded to these three issues.

Tonight, the government raided the closed area at Block 11 of Yue Tao Heen in Caribbean Coast, Tung Chung.

Signing the quarantine order needs to go around the scene and owe the doctor of the Department of Health to the doctor

"Hong Kong 01" reporters inquired about individual front-line staff responsible for the evacuation operations. They all questioned that in many operations, the Department of Health did not send enough doctors to the scene. As a result, the issuance of quarantine orders was often quite slow.

Since there is no doctor on site, it is necessary to go around a big circle. First take a WhatsApp screenshot of the person to be quarantined and go to the tracking office, then convert it into a file and arrange it into a list, and then submit it to the representatives transferred from the customs, immigration and police for verification. It was then transferred to the doctor of the Department of Health to issue a quarantine order so that they could be sent to the quarantine center.

Collecting information upstairs is mostly the responsibility of the police

Some front-line staff complained that, not to mention that doctors were unwilling to be stationed at the scene, and even went upstairs to collect information on residents. Most of the staff of the FEHD and the Department of Health were unwilling to go upstairs to collect information on households to be quarantined. The police are responsible.

Only one medical director stays behind to issue the night watch more slowly

The night shift is even more problematic. People familiar with the matter pointed out that many doctors in the Department of Health do not want to be on duty at night. After 11 p.m., only one Medical Control Officer (MCO) stayed behind. As a result, many evacuation operations were issued and issued. The quarantine orders are very slow, criticizing the bureaucracy of the Department of Health. Even if the upper level, such as the director of the Infectious Diseases Division of the Center for Health Protection, Dr. Zhang Zhujun, works with the intention of working, the middle and lower-level staff regarded the Department of Health’s positions as "sun workers" before the outbreak of the epidemic. After working from 9 to 5, they left work on time. Many of them took master's and doctoral courses and focused on research. Frontline work has rarely been touched.

The person said: "I have personally seen a very high level of the Department of Health, who made N phone calls at the enclosed site, only to get a nurse to open the night watch."
