For making a more flexible staffing arrangement so as to take care of patients with episodic illnesses, the HA will cancel the COVID-19 protected quotas reserved at GOPCs starting from October 6. The manpower and consultation quotas will be reallocated to enhance services for patients with influenza, COVID-19 and other episodic illness. The "BookCOVID" function of the "HA GO" mobile app will be suspended on the same day.
