KAN Yat-chung,

Dear Sir/Madam,

 

Further to our reply on 23 December 2021 regarding your Application for
Access to Information, please find below our reply.

 

North Lantau Hospital Hong Kong Infection Control Centre is using several
platforms for PCR testing of patients with confirmed/suspected COVID-19
infection. Different platforms have their own protocol to determine a
positive or negative result, not just solely by a single CT cutoff value.

 

If you have any questions about this reply, please contact Mr. Thomas KAN,
Access to Information Officer of North Lantau Hospital, at telephone
number 3467 7012.

 

Regards,

Thomas KAN
