Reporter asks about complaints over mainland medical staff; Now News issues apology after online attacks
內地醫護獲港府豁免註冊，來港協助抗疫，洐生醫療事故處理問題。《Now新聞》記者昨在疫情記者會問，市民在治療期間一旦遇到問題，或不幸遇上醫療事故，應如何投訴，要求醫管局交代投訴流程。有團體在網上發動聯署投訴，聲言提問散播仇恨內地醫護，更稱可能觸犯《港區國安法》。《Now新聞台》中午發出聲明，指記者提問引起市民「關注及不滿」，並對此深感抱歉。記協對有記者因提問而遭受攻擊，發聲明表達憂慮。
Mainland medical personnel were exempted by the Hong Kong government from registration to come to Hong Kong and assist in combating the pandemic, raising questions about the handling of medical incidents. At yesterday’s pandemic press conference, a reporter from Now News asked how members of the public should complain if they encountered problems during treatment or, unfortunately, experienced a medical incident, and asked the Hospital Authority to explain the complaints procedure. A group launched an online joint complaint, alleging that the question spread hatred towards mainland medical personnel and might violate the National Security Law for Hong Kong. Now News issued a statement at noon saying that the reporter’s question had caused “concern and dissatisfaction” among members of the public, and expressed deep regret. The Hong Kong Journalists Association issued a statement expressing concern that a reporter had been attacked over the question.

Hong Kong Public Opinion Research Institute Cancels Russia-Ukraine War Survey Press Conference, Says It Was Smeared and Documents Forged
香港民意研究所今早宣佈，取消原定下午舉行的「俄烏戰爭」調查發佈會，指有部份傳媒展示一份聲稱是香港民研草擬的問卷草稿，但該文件是完全捏造。香港民意研究所副行政總裁鍾劍華回覆《獨媒》時重申，《大公報》和《文匯報》等引述的該份問卷「從來冇存在過」，直斥是刻意抹黑：「你（《港人講地》）話自己係記者，唔洗驗證吓份問卷真實性先出街？根本唔係做新聞。」
The Hong Kong Public Opinion Research Institute announced this morning that it had cancelled the press conference on its “Russia-Ukraine war” survey, scheduled for this afternoon, saying that some media outlets had displayed a purported draft questionnaire drawn up by the institute, but that the document was completely fabricated. Responding to InMedia, the institute’s deputy chief executive Chung Kim-wah reiterated that the questionnaire cited by Ta Kung Pao and Wen Wei Po, among others, “never existed”, and denounced it as a deliberate attempt to smear the institute: “You (Hong Kong People Speak) say you are journalists. Shouldn’t you verify the authenticity of the questionnaire before publishing it? This is simply not journalism.”
