人力部和卫生部联手,从9月25日开始,为回利阁客工宿舍(Toh Guan Dormitory)的客工进行为期四周的冠病检测。

人力部文告指出,了解客工们的身体状况,并且尽早发现客工群体中的无症状感染者,所以展开更频密的检测行动。

当局表示,如果能够更早发现新病例,就不需要当宿舍出现新病例时将整个宿舍楼隔离期开,甚至还可以实施针对性隔离措施,以防影响没被感染的客工和雇主。

然而为了尽量避免影响客工的工作和生活作息,有关的实验性检测将在客工宿舍进行,且采用新的口咽拭子检测。

住在回利阁客工宿舍的客工们原定每14天就要进行一次冠病例行监测,而随着人力部增加的这次额外检测,客工们平均每七天就要接受一次检测。
