Carrie Lam Accuses Hong Kong Medical Experts With a Different Opinion on Universal Coronavirus Testing of "Harbouring Political Motivation" and "Smearing the Chinese Government"
Chief Executive Carrie Lam slammed medical experts and doctors in Hong Kong for "harbouring political motivation" by criticising the government's universal coronavirus testing scheme. Lam also accused the experts who did not support the scheme of "smearing the Chinese Government".
The chairperson of the Public Doctors’ Association Arisina Ma pointed out on a radio program that medical experts were only discussing the effectiveness of the scheme.
Dr. Wong Yam Hong, a specialist in cardiology working for a public hospital in Hong Kong and also a member of the pro-democracy concern group Medical Inspire, wrote on Facebook that he did not know the "medical experts and doctors" Carrie Lam was referring to. Wong said he would not call himself an expert but at least he and his colleagues have all been professional trained and are all licensed doctors. He doubted the qualifications of the medical practitioners hired by the government from China.

Up close and personal with Dr. Arisina Ma, President of Hong Kong Public Doctors' Association: To Protect Every Space in Times of Challenge
Part 1
Dr. #ArisinaMa Chong-yee, President of Hong Kong Public Doctors' Association (PDA) has always been vocal about controversial political issues such as police brutality, community-wide COVID19 test and gathering bans. Although applauded by many, she has also been spitefully criticized by pro-establishment supporters.
Ma admitted that she has had thoughts about running away or even “disappear”. Driven by her personality, she decided to step forward instead and stand for the Medical Council elections during this tough times.
Last December, Arisina Ma and two other doctors were elected to the PDA, which has been said to be a landslide victory for pro-democracy influence in the Association.
Ma is foresees tougher challenges like complaints against doctors, recruitment of overseas or Chinese doctors, etc in the coming year.
When reporters called her “The President chosen by the times” last year, she did not realise how revolting the challenges were going to be.
Ma expressed, “2020 has been a daunting year for Hongkongers, who had to endure immeasurable amounts of pain and sorrow. We are the generation chosen by the times. I cannot understand why some people are still sparing their time to talk about travel bubble, partake in hundred-people birthday party, or enjoying themselves in dance groups at this difficult juncture. I think 2020 was a gloomy and painful year, and the year ahead is going to be another heavy one.”

Dr. Arisina Ma: I Have No Regret, I can only stand on the side where I think is right

Part 2:
If she was not elected as the President of Hong Kong Public Doctors' Association (#PDA), Dr #ArisinaMa would have remained as an ordinary specialist for the elderly at a public hospital.
When asked if she had any regrets, Ma responded with a smile. She said that this is “personality decided destiny”. It is a one-way journey of which there is no time for regrets.
“This is fate. Too many things have happened this year, and frankly speaking, I don’t have much time to look back and reflect. Like many Hongkongers, our fast-paced lives leave us with no time to reflect and no time to regret.”
“Perhaps in the next couple of decades, doctors will still be making a good living. As for the “yes-men”, will they still be living in Hong Kong?
She has no regrets over this "personality decided fate".
“I think our society has become increasingly polarizing, where justice and evil, friends and foes are clearly set apart from each other. With my personality, it is easy for me to choose which side to stand on.
“Justice is everything, yet it has been ruthlessly challenged during our current times. In the face of these challenges, I can only stand on the side where I think is right.”
As a doctor, I wish to make a mark with my contributions during these troubled times.
“Hong Kong is facing a shortage of resources, inadequate services and a dearth in social welfare. Although I cannot drive wide-ranging societal changes like a politician, I still hope that I can make an impact to slow down the declining standards in medical services.
