GX continue with second phase of pulse oximeters distribution in the Hong Kong community

To continue strengthening health resilience-building efforts in the community, throughout the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, GX Foundation has launched a second phase of pulse oximeters distribution throughout the Hong Kong community. GX partnered with the Collaborating Centre for Oxford University and CUHK for Disaster and Medical Humanitarian Response (CCOUC) to distribute pulse oximeters to 20 organizations in total across the city. This will enable caregivers to provide home-based monitoring of elderly people and COVID-19 patients, to strengthen the independent and effectiveness of home-based care, and alleviate burden on hospitals during difficult times.
