What have your experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system been like?
When we asked expats and global nomads in Hong Kong about their experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system, they replied...
"The pandemic has had a significant impact on the healthcare system in Hong Kong. The government has implemented a range of measures to ensure the safety of patients and healthcare workers, including the introduction of temperature checks and the mandatory wearing of face masks. The healthcare system has also been stretched to its limits, with hospitals and clinics facing a surge in demand for services. Despite this, the healthcare system has been able to cope with the increased demand, and the government has provided additional resources to ensure that the system is able to meet the needs of the population. Overall, the healthcare system in Hong Kong has been able to respond effectively to the pandemic, and the government has taken steps to ensure that the system is able to continue to provide quality care to its citizens," commented one expat who made the move to Hong Kong.
