As of 12 noon today, 113 people have returned to Hong Kong on different flights or have made arrangements to return to Hong Kong. 37 Hong Kong people still in Morocco are mainly concentrated in the cities of Casablanca and Marrakesh. The SAR government is working with China in Morocco. The embassy and a number of airlines have actively followed up, making every effort to reserve seats or arrange flights for stranded Hong Kong people to return to Hong Kong, and will issue them the latest news on returning to Hong Kong as soon as possible.

[18:44] Chen Zhangleyi, director general of the Tourism Industry Council, pointed out that there are still 3 Hong Kong tour groups involving 37 people in Peru, waiting for the Hong Kong government to assist in returning to Hong Kong.

It is reported that the Hong Kong Government is considering chartering flights to pick up Hong Kong people stranded in Peru, but Morocco has not heard from them.

[17:10] He Wanxia said that the foreign approach is to quarantine at home after the diagnosis, but the Hong Kong government's approach is to contain it. Early inspection, isolation, and treatment are needed. Therefore, the number of inspections and the number of isolation beds have been increased to meet the containment Policies, but we will study them later to complement the government ’s future epidemic prevention strategies.

[New crown pneumonia] 44 confirmed patients to be admitted to the Hospital Authority: Most patients wait for one day

[16:58] Zhang Zhujun pointed out that no confirmed patient on hand was a person who violated the quarantine order. She also pointed out that among the newly confirmed cases today, cases 614, 615 and 625 are customers who have been to All Night Long, and cases 627, 635 and 638 are staff members of the bar and musician group. The 630th case was a performer who lived with the 432th case diagnosed earlier.

Zhang Zhujun also pointed out that in the epidemic prevention work, the government can do everything, but private gathering depends on everyone's self-discipline and cooperation. I hope everyone understands that the disease itself is highly contagious, especially when there are crowds of people. The patient has no symptoms or mild symptoms, and emphasizes that in order to protect himself, family and friends, we hope everyone should pay attention to the need for social distance.

[New Crown Pneumonia] Another 7 people in the bar group are infected and another 6 headless cases have been to the bar

If they have visited places during the infection period, the CHP will announce them on the website. She also acknowledged that there are indeed more cases that may not be the source, reflecting the "spreading" of the community. She hopes that "social distance" can be used to prevent the spread. The next two weeks will be "critical moments" and I hope everyone will cooperate to stay home.

As for the recent symptoms of "no taste and smell", she pointed out that there may be more relevant reports and everyone will pay attention to it, because some patients' related symptoms only appear briefly and improve after a period of time, hoping to be "transient." ".

The Hospital Authority also hopes to bring patients to the hospital for examination as soon as possible and receive treatment as soon as possible, but admits that there are still many patients hospitalized. I want to add 400 beds to the second-line isolation ward as soon as possible, but if the rate of new cases is fast, I believe that the second-line wards will be "full soon". She also said that infectious disease experts are still actively researching how to divert stable patients to free up front-line isolation beds for newly diagnosed patients, but are worried that even if they try hard to add extra beds, they may not meet the demand and do not want to be like foreign countries. The "paralyzed hospital" once again called on everyone to stay home and "jointly fight the epidemic."

She also said that she was sorry for the confirmed patients to wait about one day before being admitted to the hospital, and hoped that after the situation improved, they could open to the second-line isolation ward (that is, the modified negative-pressure ward) next week.
