The new crown pneumonia epidemic is raging. The Hong Kong government has designated buildings on Nathan Road, Gansu Street, Ferry Street, and Jordan Road in Yau Ma Tei as "designated areas." When there is a case in a building, testing is mandatory.
Member of the Kowloon West Legislative Council and the Democratic Alliance for Betterment of Hong Kong’s Zheng Yongshun stated on a radio program today (18th) that the current "Temple Street Epidemic Area" is actually only 50% to 60% of the total number of citizens undergoing compulsory testing. The government advocates more To publicize the importance of testing and the consequences of illegality, the testing period should also be extended for three more days.
In addition, the Yau Tsim Mong District Councillor and the pro-democracy Chen Ka-long said that the authorities currently do not have the list of households, and most can only shoot and find people.

Zheng Yongshun said on the Hong Kong and Taiwan program "Millenniums" that nearly 1,800 people in the "Miao Street Epidemic Area" have completed compulsory testing. In fact, they only account for 50 to 60% of the people who need to be tested. "Failed to do it", he believes that the government should publicize the importance of testing and the consequences of violations of the law. It should also extend the testing period by three more days and extend the daily service hours of testing contractors.
He also said that there are many sub-districts in the district, and there may be problems with the connection of the pipes. He hopes that the government will send people to inspect the situation as soon as possible. If necessary, it should consider evacuating residents to the quarantine center, otherwise there will be a risk of infection if they stay at home.
He also believes that Sham Shui Po and To Kwa Wan districts have many sub-districts and the buildings are close to each other. If the government can provide more testing in these areas, the residents can also be at ease.
