Service suspension of Community Vaccination Centres and Hospital COVID-19 Vaccination Stations
******************************************************************************************
Please broadcast the following as soon as possible and repeat it at suitable intervals:
The Government announced today (October 13) that as the Tropical Cyclone Warning Signal No.8 is now in force, all Community Vaccination Centres (CVCs) under the COVID-19 Vaccination Programme and Hospital COVID-19 Vaccination Stations (HCVSs) will remain closed. The CVCs will open and resume vaccination service three hours after the cancellation of the Tropical Cyclone Warning Signal No. 8 and they will operate until the normal closing time. The HCVSs will resume operation one hour after the specialist out-patient clinics of hospitals resume service.
For persons with a booking affected by the closure of the CVCs, their booking will be rescheduled to a later date and they will be informed of their new appointment date and time by SMS notification. If their booking is for the second vaccination dose and the CVCs resume vaccination service later today, they may go to the CVC they selected in their original booking during the remaining opening hours for vaccination today.
