******************************************************************************************
Attention duty announcers, radio and TV stations:
 
Please broadcast the following as soon as possible and repeat it at suitable intervals:
 
     The Government announced today (August 25) that as the Tropical Cyclone Warning Signal No. 8 has been cancelled, the vaccination service at all Community Vaccination Centres (CVCs) and Hospital COVID-19 Vaccination Stations under the COVID-19 Vaccination Programme will start at 12.30pm.
 
     For persons with a booking affected by the delayed opening of the CVCs, their booking will be rescheduled to a later date and they will be informed of their new appointment date and time by SMS notification. If their booking is for the first or second vaccination dose, they may go to the CVC they selected in their original booking during the remaining opening hours for vaccination today. Persons who have made bookings for the time slots within the available opening hours of the CVCs today should go to the CVC at the time slot they selected in their original booking.
 
     The Home Vaccination Service scheduled for today has been cancelled. The relevant medical organisations will inform persons affected of the updated vaccination arrangement.
