During the SARS outbreak in 2003, he served as the acting Chief Executive of the Hospital Authority when Ho Shiu-wei was infected with SARS.
The medical system in Hong Kong was heavily criticised for having responded too slowly to the deadly disease.
Following the LegCo investigation report on SARS, Ko resigned from the Hospital Authority, along with Chairman Edward Leong in 2004.
In 2004, he began serving as Chairman of the Hong Kong Anti-Cancer Society, Director of the Hong Kong Red Cross and Chairman of their Health & Care Service Management Committee.

He was awarded with BBS in 2008.

In 2012, he was appointed as Secretary for Food and Health.
In September 2022, Ko said that Hong Kong should not treat COVID-19 as a flu, and also said that the city should not relax anti-epidemic measures.
On 12 September 2022, SCMP reported that the government's Covid-19 Expert Advisory Panel, composed of six medical specialists, had several members who suggested gradually lifting COVID-19 restrictions (including removing hotel quarantine by November 2022), with Ko and Lo Chung-mau expressing their doubts about their suggestions and preferring a cautious approach.
Ko also rejected Singapore's approach to COVID-19, calling it "lying flat," though daily caseloads in Singapore averaged between 1,000-3,000 per day, compared around 10,000 per day in Hong Kong.
On 25 September 2022, after the government lifted mandatory hotel quarantine against Ko's earlier suggestion, Ko said the government made the decision based on data.
Ko also said that lifting of quarantine "does not mean the government has opted to lie flat," and that the city "has never opted to live with the virus."
On 17 October 2022, Ko defended the government's decision to invalidate 20,000 vaccine exemption passes, and said it was for the public interest.
However, the government's decision to invalidate the passes was earlier temporarily blocked by the High Court.
