Hospital Authority statement on cyber-bullying against healthcare staff

The following is issued on behalf of the Hospital Authority:

     The Hospital Authority (HA) made the following statement today (February 5) regarding doxxing and cyber-bullying against healthcare staff:

     While thousands of staff members were absent from duty recently, the remaining healthcare staff members have stayed on duty to maintain emergency and essential patient services. 
 
     The HA strongly condemns the malicious behaviour of cyber-bullying that disclosed personal information of staff members staying on duty, and of private healthcare staff offering support to the HA.

     The HA once again thanks all staff staying on duty for their dedication and commitment to safeguard the health of patients.

     The HA urges members of the public to stop forwarding any kind of cyber-bullying messages, which will affect public hospital services and the morale of healthcare workers.
