Service Demand Under Monitoring




To cope with the surge in service demand, the Hospital Authority (HA) has put in place a comprehensive phasic response plan, and would continue to monitor the daily service statistics of public hospitals (including the number of first attendances at Accident and Emergency Departments (A&Es), the number of inpatient admissions to medical wards via A&Es and the inpatient bed occupancy rates) as well as the laboratory positivity rates of influenza and COVID-19, etc., in order to enable timely and flexible implementation of service demand surge measures.

The HA’s service demand is now under monitoring. Staff, patients and visitors should continue to observe and follow the infection control measures in the HA venues.
