Summary

Hong Kong’s Medical Council resumed a disciplinary inquiry on Friday regarding Dr. Sit Sou-chi, who is accused of a medical blunder that resulted in permanent disability for a boy named Li Yuanjian over 16 years ago. The inquiry follows public outcry after the council's decision to terminate the hearing. Dr. Sit is alleged to have failed to conduct all necessary and immediate investigations after Li Yuanjian, the son of a mainland Chinese couple, experienced a seizure on December 22, 2009. On Friday, Sit’s counsel questioned nurse Ho Kit-ha, who was involved in the case.
