If we do happen to contract COVID, we don’t play by a different set of rules.

Those are the words of Permanent Secretary for Health, Doctor James Fong who says the health officials go into the same isolation wards as everyone else, the same wards that their colleagues are responsible for managing.

He says when it comes to these facilities, please trust they care deeply about seeing them run well.

Doctor Fong says they know it could be them, someone they love, or any of the fellow citizens, all of whom they are sworn to care for, who are in those facilities.

He also says that given that they are in the business of saving lives, please trust that these facilities are equipped to offer the best possible care to those who may develop a severe case of the virus.

Doctor Fong says if you do have COVID, he wants to emphasize again, there is no safer place for you to be than in their isolation facilities.
