Here's a joke for you: Serious Response Level had been activated in public hospitals by The Hospital Authority against the Wuhan Pneumonia

I have a question for Chan Siu-chee and the management of the Hospital Authority. There are currently over 60 people stuck at the A&E overnight, waiting to be treated. This sight looks as pathetic as a refugee camp. Do you think such an environment will be able to meet the standards of public health and infection control?

If you claim that there is sufficient manpower, then please come down and explain to the patient and their relatives why there are only 1.5 nurses to take care 60 patients. Furthermore, there is a 20-hour waiting time. Some of them had to sleep under the television while waiting!

You have created 1400 beds out of nothing, but who is going to handle the nursing of the patients and the doing of ward rounds? The management?

The people are not as ignorant as you think. Fabricating lies and 'moving the goalposts' has become second nature to you, and you're at a point whereby you're fooling yourselves.
