The epidemic is ruthless, but there is love in the world.
The fifth wave of the epidemic in the past was particularly severe, and the peak period even overwhelmed public medical care.

In the face of the unprecedented new crown pneumonia epidemic, Health Care has implemented the corporate social responsibility of "taking from the society and using it for the society", urgency and relief for the people, and is committed to the cause of anti-epidemic.
At the beginning of the outbreak in 2020, Health Care launched the "Mask Warming Action", distributing more than 30,000 masks free of charge to primary school children and sick children in urgent need.
When the fifth wave of the epidemic hit Hong Kong in March this year, Hong Kong Health Care immediately launched the "Health Health 360" membership plan, which offered permanent free memberships to all Hong Kong citizens and provided a series of members-exclusive health care services to help alleviate local medical problems. pressure.
Hundreds of thousands of test kits distributed to tens of thousands of families of schoolchildren
In the middle of last month, the Education Bureau announced that all kindergartens, primary schools and secondary schools in Hong Kong will gradually resume classes from April 19, and require students to take a rapid test before going to school every day and be allowed to return to school if they test negative.
However, the shortage of rapid test kits and the high prices in the market have caused economic pressure and burden on many families of schoolchildren.
In view of this, through the "Health 360" membership program, Health Care Medical has set up distribution points in more than 30 health care medical centers throughout Hong Kong, Kowloon and the New Territories from April 19 to May 19, offering free weekly delivery to school children and families. Distributed 5 rapid test kits, and distributed hundreds of thousands of them, benefiting tens of thousands of families.
Develop multiple vaccination channels to build a local protective barrier
In fact, HealthCare has not stopped in its fight against the epidemic in the past two years, and is committed to creating multiple channels for the Hong Kong community to vaccinate against COVID-19, so as to facilitate the vaccination of citizens and reduce the risk of severe illness or death for citizens once infected.
Since March 2021, Health Care has provided free COVID-19 vaccination services at its designated medical centers, and has successively operated a number of community vaccination centers and vaccination stations in public hospitals. It has also established outreach vaccination teams, which are large-scale institutions. Employees are vaccinated against COVID-19, and support the government in launching home-based vaccination services in Hong Kong to provide free COVID-19 vaccinations to the elderly aged 70 or above who have not been vaccinated against COVID-19 and those with reduced mobility due to illness or disability.
As of April 2022, HealthCare has vaccinated more than 1 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines for all Hong Kong citizens.
At the beginning of 2022, the fifth wave of the new crown pneumonia epidemic has ravaged the whole of Hong Kong, and everyone is in danger, triggering a wave of new crown vaccination.
To meet the public's urgency, Health and Medical launched a mobile vaccination station converted from a container in a timely manner, and flexibly shuttled through multiple districts to vaccinate the general public against COVID-19.
Carry out new crown nucleic acid testing and operate community isolation facilities
In addition to the COVID-19 vaccination service, as early as August 2020, Health Care joined a medical testing institution to open a large nucleic acid testing laboratory in the headquarters building to provide virus nucleic acid testing services to Hong Kong citizens.
In addition, Hong Kong Medical Examination and Medical Diagnosis Center Co., Ltd., a related company of Health Care, also provides virus nucleic acid detection services.
As of April 2022, more than 3.5 million cases have been tested.
In addition, Health Care has actively participated in the anti-epidemic work in community isolation facilities.
In late March 2022, Health Care took over the operation and management of the Tsing Yi Community Isolation Facility Affiliated Medical Station, and also participated in the operation of the Kai Tak Respite Center, which specializes in caring for the elderly, and dispatched medical staff to provide round-the-clock medical support.
As one of the largest and oldest listed medical groups in Hong Kong, Health Care has a duty to continue to actively cooperate with and participate in the government's anti-epidemic cause, actively provide various anti-epidemic support, and walk through the "epidemic" together with Hong Kong citizens.
