Mr Anthony Wu, Chairman of the Hospital Authority Board, addressed
the guests at the Tradelink business luncheon held on 30 November,
on measures to deal with the avian influenza. Mr. Wu said,
“The Hong Kong SAR Government and the Hospital Authority
have put in tremendous efforts in the areas of prevention
and surveillance of the pandemic, by getting prepared for
the challenges for the infectious disease outbreaks. The experience
in the SARS outbreak in 2003 has brought forth higher efficiency
in these areas, and the Government Health, Welfare and Food
Bureau, the Hospital Authority and the department of Health
have commenced preparation work 6 months ago, and a comprehensive
plan to deal with the pandemic is already in place which includes
the strengthening of the communication channel with the Mainland
authority, supply of medicines, regular drills, etc. We strongly
believe, Hong Kong is fully capable to deal with the challenges
of the sudden outbreak of the disease.”
