The religious community has always supported the government's epidemic prevention work. In the past few weeks, the epidemic situation has become more stable. I hope the government can allow religious activities to resume. The group agreed to set an upper limit. Half of the people can be placed in the place. If 20 people can be placed, only 10 people can be placed at present, but it is not allowed to eat and drink. There is no restriction on receiving the Eucharist.

Public entertainment places, entertainment game stations, and game machine facilities shall not be allowed to stay more than eight people, and residents in large places shall not exceed half of the designed capacity.
The "restriction order" that prohibits group gatherings of more than eight people in public places will be extended to June 4.
Some religious gatherings will be exempted. Exempted worship places include churches, Taoist temples, temples, etc., but they cannot provide food.
Chen Zhaoshi urged the public to seek medical treatment and test as soon as possible if the symptoms are mild.

The Department of Health will purchase new equipment, and the University of Hong Kong and the Chinese University will be granted funds to purchase equipment to increase the amount of detection. Working hours will be extended before the equipment is added. The priority testing group includes airport workers and residential care homes for the elderly.
[09:45] Regarding anti-epidemic measures, Lin Zheng said that the current strategy is to prevent overseas imports and prevent outbreaks in the community. He also said that it is not practical to have no local infection cases for 28 consecutive days.
