Guo Jiaqi, a Citizen Party who is a doctor, believes that the government needs to consider whether to restrict the operation of restaurants and entertainment venues, but he believes that if the government decides to suspend restaurants, etc., it must provide actual subsidies to affected businesses.

Chen Shuzhuang, the convener of the Democratic Conference, pointed out that the number of confirmed cases in Hong Kong in the past 7 days reached double digits. One day, more than 50 confirmed cases were recorded. Some were not imported cases. Some of them still could not find the source and group infection. Very severe.
Guo Jiaqi pointed out that the number of confirmed cases has risen sharply in the past week. He took the 44 cases confirmed yesterday as an example. 29 cases had travel records, and the remaining 15 had no travel records. It reflects that the community outbreak has erupted. Occupy 70%, if the government does not take measures to seal off, the negative pressure ward will be exhausted.
He also pointed out that the government needs to consider whether to restrict the operation of restaurants and entertainment venues. If the government decides to require restaurants and other businesses to cease operations, subsidies must be provided to affected businesses.

Hong Kong-based Mao Mengjing demanded that Chief Executive Lin Zheng Yue'e no longer put political considerations first when deciding on new anti-epidemic measures. In the information technology industry, Mo Naiguang pointed out that although the government announced the civil servants ’work arrangements at home last Saturday, he received a lot of feedback from civil servants. Many employees need to return to the office today to wait for work arrangements, and some departments only allow half of them to work from home. Need to return to work in the office, he criticized the government's home work arrangement is "hanging sheep's head to sell dog meat."
