Hong Kong Woman with New Coronavirus Discriminated Against by Clinic – A Shocking Encounter

[Polmonite da nuovo coronavirus/epidemia/infezione/influenza/periodo di picco dell’influenza/influenza A/influenza B]In addition to the recent raging flu, the number of new cases of coronavirus infection has also increased. A Hong Kong woman was infected with the new coronavirus and sought medical treatment at a clinic. Unexpectedly, after the doctor learned that she was infected with the new coronavirus, she immediately kicked her out of the clinic. She admitted that she did not want to be infected, nor did she want the clinic’s patients to be infected either. She hoped that the victim could find a friend not infected with the new coronavirus to take the medicine instead. The victim reluctantly said that there were many protective measures in the clinic and she was also wearing a KF94 mask. She felt discriminated against: “For the first time I felt that it was wrong to be sick.”

The woman posted on the Facebook page “Sai Wan Chang Shi” that she went to a clinic in Kennedy Town yesterday to seek medical treatment because she was infected with the new coronavirus, but the doctor learned that she was infected with the new coronavirus during the visit. he immediately said: “No. You can enter the Li Clinic”:

When you go out, I don’t want to be infected by you, I’m going on a long vacation tomorrow, and I don’t want you to infect the patients in the clinic. When you leave the clinic, I call you consultation.

The victim then left the clinic with his head lowered, about 5 or 6 steps from the clinic entrance, and had a telephone consultation. The doctor then said that she could collect the medicine at the clinic in 10 minutes, but she hoped that she would not enter the clinic in person, which made her feel extremely helpless:

If someone who hasn’t had Covid asks me to take medicine, why can’t I get it myself? Should I ask someone to help me get the medicine?

Ten minutes later she entered the clinic again, but the girl at the counter pointed to a piece of paper on the wall whose contents read more or less: Please inform the clinic staff of the two lines of the rapid test. She felt offended and admitted that she had sought medical attention because she was infected with COVID-19. If she had noticed this piece of paper when she entered the clinic, she would definitely have reported it.

“For the first time in my life, I felt that being sick was wrong.”

He recalled that at that time the doctors and clinic staff were also wearing masks, and the counter was blocked by a layer of rubber. He was also wearing a high protection KF94 mask. He believed that the protective measures were more than sufficient there were ten patients seeking treatment. People in ’89 and ’89 are contagious, so if you don’t understand that, you’ll only be discriminating against COVID-19 patients.

She admitted that “for such a great person”, the first time she was punished was by a doctor. “For the first time in my life, I felt that getting sick was wrong,” he stressed. The government had already classified the new coronavirus as an endemic disease, but many people were still afraid, he emphasizes angrily:

If you, as a doctor, don’t want to see a certain type of patients, I don’t blame you, but do you really want to think about whether you are fit to be a doctor?

Symptoms of infection with a new variant of the coronavirus

The World Health Organization recently classified the new mutant strain of the KP.2 coronavirus as a “mutant strain requiring monitoring.” It is understood that the transmissibility of KP.2 is approximately 1.2 times that of JN.1 and has the potential to become a mainstream mutant strain.

Kong Fanyi, director and tenured professor of the Department of Infectious Diseases, Department of Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, HKU, said previously that JN.1 is a mutant strain of BA.2.86 and its overall pathological mechanism remains unchanged and is similar to other XBB mutant strains. Although JN.1 has better transmissibility and immune evasion, there is no evidence that it causes more severe symptoms. Kong Fanyi also stressed that elderly or immune-deficient people are at greater risk of severe disease and should receive XBB boosters as soon as possible.
