Lam Tzit Yuen David

David Lam Tzit-yuen is a Hong Kong surgeon and politician who is the elected Legislative Council member for Medical and Health Services constituency. He was elected in 2021 and re-elected in 2025.

Biography In September 2022, Lam was removed of his status of being an international Fellow of the American College of Surgeons due to Lam being a national of China, saying "The American College of Surgeons regrets to inform you that it is not able to continue offering Fellowship or other membership status to residents of the People's Republic of China. Unfortunately, your status as an international Fellow falls into this situation. We are being advised to take this step to avoid issues with the PRC laws governing the operation of foreign organizations in the PRC." Lam said that his membership status had no actual use, and that he would save approximately US$200 per year on membership fees.

On 27 December 2022, Lam said that Hong Kong should still isolate people with COVID-19 and should still impose PCR tests on inbound arrivals, saying "If we do not test them at the border, that means no test, which is a bit hazardous." However, Lam said that those coming from mainland China should be exempt from the PCR test at the border.
