The plan aims to safeguard the health of voters, candidates, officials, and personnel involved in the electoral process; promptly detect, manage, and provide emergency response to any arising medical situations; and thereby contribute to the safe and smooth organization of the election.
Accordingly, the Department of Health will deploy medical personnel, equipment, and essential medicines on standby at polling stations across the city to ensure first-aid services are available at all voting venues throughout the election period. Grade I general hospitals and specialized hospitals will allocate adequate resources and remain ready to receive deputies and citizens participating in the election should they require medical observation or treatment.
In the event of emergencies, such as fires, explosions, or large-scale food poisoning incidents, off-hospital emergency response teams from hospitals across the city will be mobilized to provide additional support. In addition, the Department has developed and implemented a plan to ensure epidemic prevention and control measures are strictly carried out in accordance with regulations throughout the election period.
