The 12:45 is TG601.
Yesterday’s North Lantau Hospital test won’t satisfy this form they’re handing out. An X-Ray isn’t a negative test for COVID, it’s really just the doctor saying “(in the limited amount of time you Thais gave us to run tests) he doesn’t appear sick to me”
To sign negative testing, a doctor will have to do a proper throat swab test specifically for COVID DNA. A friend of the wife’s done that last week at a public hospital:
(“The results of your deep throat swab test recently conducted by the Hospital Authority is Negative”)
She waited a days for the test results.
IANAD but I believe the swab test is the minimum a HK doctor needs to sign off on the Thai cert.
She just told me private doctors won’t do this.
Only public hospitals are currently running the tests in HK.
And you need to do this test shortly after T-48 to have any hope of getting the results back.
I’ll turn on I-Cable for lunch segment.
