General outpatient clinic services for Labour Day
*************************************************

The following is issued on behalf of the Hospital Authority:

     The Hospital Authority (HA) spokesperson today (April 29) said that 14 general out-patient clinics (see table below) will provide services during Labour Day (May 1). Members of the public are reminded to make advance bookings for appointments either through the telephone appointment system or the "Book GOPC" function in the "HA Go" mobile application.
 
     Given the unsteady COVID-19 epidemic situation locally, the HA spokesperson reminded the public to continue to stay vigilant during the holiday. They should reduce participating in mass gatherings and minimise meal gatherings; maintain personal and environmental hygiene; comply with epidemic prevention measures such as wearing masks, practising hand hygiene frequently and maintaining social distancing. Moreover, eligible members of the public should get vaccinated earlier.
 
     To choose a suitable family doctor and related clinic service, members of the public are welcome to browse the Primary Care Directory of the Food and Health Bureau at www.pcdirectory.gov.hk. In addition, members of the public can obtain specimen collection packs for COVID-19 tests during the holiday or submit specimens at nine GOPCs (see table below) at the designated time. The public can also obtain specimen collection packs at 20 MTR stations. For details, please visit the website: www.coronavirus.gov.hk/eng/early-testing.html.
