Tuen Mun Hospital announces a patient tested preliminarily positive for COVID-19 The following is issued on behalf of the Hospital Authority: The spokesperson for Tuen Mun Hospital (TMH) made the following announcement today (November 27) regarding a case tested preliminarily positive for COVID-19: A 21-year-old male patient was admitted to an Orthopaedics and Traumatology (O&T) ward of TMH yesterday (November 26) afternoon. He was arranged to take the viral test for COVID-19 and the preliminary result available in the late evening was positive. The patient has been transferred to an isolation ward. He remains asymptomatic and in stable condition. The patient underwent a surgery in October and required regular follow- up consultation. He attended the O&T specialist-out-patient clinic on November 24. In yesterday afternoon, the patient attended the Accident and Emergency Department (A&E) of TMH because of wound bleeding. He was arranged to be admitted to an O&T ward after initial assessment. Upon learning the patient’s test result, the Infection Control Unit conducted investigation to trace the healthcare workers and patients who had been in contact with him. The contact tracing identified that five patients who stayed in the same cubicle with the patient concerned as close contacts and required quarantine for 14 days. They were arranged to take the viral test for COVID-19 and all results were negative. All staff members who have been in contact with the patient concerned were equipped with appropriate personal protective equipment, therefore no staff member is required to be put under quarantine nor medical surveillance. TMH had arranged thorough cleansing and disinfection in the ward concerned, A&E and the specialist out-patient clinic. The hospital will fully cooperate with the Centre for Health Protection on follow up actions..

LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL PANEL on TRANSPORT Progress Update on the Installation of Speed Enforcement Camera and Red Light Camera
CB(1)477/03-04(02) LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL PANEL ON TRANSPORT Progress Update on the Installation of Speed Enforcement Camera and Red Light Camera Systems Introduction This paper updates Members on the progress of the installation of speed enforcement camera and red light camera systems. Background Speed Enforcement Cameras 2. Driving in excess of speed limits on the road has contributed to the occurrence and severity of most traffic accidents. Overseas experience shows that installation of speed enforcement cameras (SECs) at strategic locations is a useful means to combat speeding effectively. 3. Before January 1999, there were only 10 locations along Tolo Highway and Fanling Highway that were installed with SEC on- site equipment. In January 1999, we consulted this Panel on our proposal to expand the coverage of SECs to 60 other locations at strategic roads and expressways, and to place eight cameras at these locations on a rotational basis. The funding requirement for the procurement of cameras and computer systems, installation works, testing of equipment and contingencies was estimated to be $25.16m. Members supported the proposal. We subsequently secured the Finance Committee (FC)’s funding approval for the project in July 1999. However, as the price of the successful bid was lower than our estimate, we decided to add another 15 locations to the project, then making a total of 75 locations. The project was scheduled to be completed by September 2002. The list of locations is at Annex A. - 2 - Red Light Cameras 4. The red light camera (RLC) system aims to deter drivers from red light jumping which accounts for more than 80% of traffic signal offences.

Chapter 7: Healthcare in Hong Kong
Chapter 7: Healthcare in Hong Kong The Hong Kong Hospital Authority The Hong Kong Hospital Authority (HA) is responsible for managing all local public hospitals in Hong Kong. Staff of the HA can communicate in Chinese (mainly the Cantonese dialect) and / or English. If interpretation is needed for other languages, the HA will use reasonable endeavours to arrange for patients free interpretation services provided by third parties / consulates. Information about the HA, including the contact details of public hospitals, can be found on its website at www.ha.org.hk.Information on Accident and Emergency Departments and General Out-patient Clinics is also available in eight other languages, namely Bahasa Indonesian, Hindi, Nepali, Punjabi (Indian), Punjabi (Pakistani), Tagalog, Thai, Urdu on the website. Accident & Emergency services The Accident & Emergency (A&E) services are provided at 18 public hospitals under the HA. They deliver a high standard of service for critically ill or injured persons who need urgent medical attention. They also provide medical support for victims of disasters. To ensure that patients with more serious conditions are accorded higher priority in medical treatment, the HA adopts a triage system which classifies patients attending the A&E Departments into five categories according to their clinical conditions: critical, emergency, urgent, semi-urgent or non-urgent. Patients who do not require emergency attendance should seek medical treatment in public or private clinics.

(“EOI”) for Operating the Rehabus Feeder Services
Invitation for Expression of Interest (“EOI”) for Operating the Rehabus Feeder Services In 2018, the Transport Department of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government (“TD”) invited interested parties (Proponents) to operate the Rehabus Feeder Services with effect from 1 June 2019 for a time period of three years. After years of operation, it is proven that to engage another Rehabus operator to provide Rehabus service can improve the operational efficiency in general. As the service period of the existing Rehabus operator will soon be expired, TD invites Proponents to operate the Rehabus Feeder Services and it is expected that the operator will start to commence the services from 1 June 2022 for a period of 5 years. TD may extend the operating period of the Rehabus Feeder Services for a further period or periods not exceeding 5 years at any one time, so that the operating period granted together with all extensions thereof shall not in any case exceed a period of 10 years in aggregate. A. Feeder Routes1 Hong Kong Island 1. Queen Mary Hospital route 2. Eastern Hospital route 3. Southern District route (Fridays (Public Holidays), Saturdays and Sundays) Kowloon 4.

Application for Accreditation Tuen Mun Safe Community of Hong Kong
Accreditation report for Tuen Mun Safe Community of Hong Kong Application for Accreditation Tuen Mun Safe Community Of Hong Kong Dr. Cheng Man-yung, Chairman, Working Committee, Tuen Mun Safe Community Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, China October 2002 1 Accreditation report for Tuen Mun Safe Community of Hong Kong I. Greeting There is a general misconception that the word “safe” in a Safe Community only applies to the work environment. But in fact, people should pay more attention to every aspect of their lives, no matter how minor it is. Tuen Mun was inaugurated as the first safe community in Hong Kong on 21 March 2001. I hope this can act as a bridge between us and other communities, and serves as a communication channel for the residents in Tuen Mun so that they can get to know more about the project as well as details of the activities. As the Chairman of the Tuen Mun District Council, I will work closely with my colleagues and give full support to the “Safe Community”. We will liaise with various government departments, major corporations, schools and social groups to ensure the concept of safe community reaches every corner of the community. I hope Tuen Mun will become a designated safe community that is recognized by the World Health Organization. And more importantly, Tuen Mun will be a safe and healthy home and workplace for our next generation. The Honourable Lau Wong-fat, GBS, JP Patron of Tuen Mun Safe Community / Chairman of Tuen Mun District Council Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, China 2 Accreditation report for Tuen Mun Safe Community of Hong Kong II.
