The Hospital Authority (HA) announced that Chinese medicine clinics cum training and research centers in all 18 districts in Hong Kong will launch services on three and nine days in winter.
The service will offer half-price discounts to elderly participants to raise awareness of the benefits of traditional Chinese medicine in preventing diseases.

Huang added: “The initiative aims to encourage the elderly to embrace a healthy lifestyle and raise their awareness of disease prevention.”
