Should Hong Kong close borders with China for the coronavirus?

“There are a large number of Hong Kong residents who are traveling in mainland China and abroad and need to return. I don't think it's very significant to talk about a total closure of border control points, ”said Hong Kong chief executive Carrie Lam, discarding requests from residents and medical staff in the city that demand the complete closure of borders. So far, several points of entry into Hong Kong from mainland China remain open, so residents and legislators fear that a disaster will be triggered and that the lives of Hong Kong residents will be put at risk.
