[07:30] The fifth wave of the epidemic deteriorated rapidly, the medical system collapsed, and photos of patients waiting overnight in tents outside the hospital under the cold wind made headlines.

In an exclusive interview with Hong Kong 01, Liu Kaiwen, who has been an A&E nurse for ten years, directly denounced the authorities for distributing false information and allowing citizens who tested positive to flock to the A&E department, which led to the rapid collapse of the medical system.

Looking back at the past month or two, his tone was full of helplessness and sadness, but he still did not give up and "does everything" for Hong Kong.
