Central and Western District Office supports Kennedy Town residents in fighting pandemic
****************************************************************************************
The C&WDO will co-operate with district volunteer groups to start distributing anti-epidemic supplies to the underprivileged residents in need in the Kennedy Town area, including rapid antigen test (RAT) kits, KN95 masks and anti-epidemic proprietary Chinese medicines, with the aim to enhancing residents' awareness of epidemic prevention and supporting the residents in need with additional anti-epidemic supplies.
Moreover, the C&WDO will also distribute RAT kits to households, cleansing workers and property management staff of the relevant buildings in the Kennedy Town area starting from tomorrow, and will also appeal through the relevant building management offices and owners' corporations to the residents to undergo voluntary testing using the RAT kits promptly and maintain good personal hygiene.
The C&WDO and relevant government departments will step up the cleansing in the vicinity of the concerned area, so as to maintain environmental hygiene and reduce the risk of virus transmission.
The C&WDO appeals to the residents in the concerned area to observe all applicable social distancing measures and get vaccinated as soon as possible. Any individuals who are in doubt about their own health conditions or with infection risks (such as individuals who have visited places with epidemic outbreaks or had contact with cases that were tested positive) are advised to undergo testing promptly for early identification of infected persons.
