While the entire population takes a second round of nucleic acid tests between now and Tuesday, the emergency department of Conde de São Januário Hospital Centre – including the emergency station of outlying islands – haematology-oncology day hospital, specialist outpatient pharmacy, inpatient and hemodialysis services will function as usual.

However peritoneal dialysis services, in-hospital vaccination, vaccination stations in the theatre, non-emergency elective surgery, specialist outpatient services – including specialist outpatient clinics – imaging departments, clinical pathology and internal medicine endoscopy rooms and urology day clinics, and outpatient rehabilitation services will be suspended until further notice.

Conde de São Januário Hospital Centre will stop all visits from today until further notice. If there are special circumstances, they will be dealt with according to actual needs. If you have any queries, please call the hotline 8390 6000 or 8390 3600.
