This side emphasized the importance of prohibiting the gathering of eight people. Chen Zhaoshi pointed out in the same blog that the conditions of people from Guangdong or Macau have been relaxed to a limited extent. Details will be announced as soon as the measures are implemented.

The polymerization restriction order was initially implemented in April. The peak period for imported cases from March to April fell back to the middle and late April. It has gradually stabilized in recent days, but there are still sporadic local cases.

Chen Zhaoshi said in her blog that the Hong Kong government’s epidemic prevention measures have no political considerations. She quoted earlier comments that restricting group aggregation is "political suppression and directed against political gatherings." Chen Zhaoshi said that it is necessary to "sternly point out the relevant remarks. There is no basis for facts, emphasizing that in Hong Kong, like other countries or regions, the implementation of restrictive group aggregation rules is purely based on the consideration of epidemic prevention and anti-epidemic. It prevents the spread of viruses in the community by preventing crowds from gathering.

She continued that if the epidemic continues to be stable, it does not rule out the gradual relaxation of restrictions on group aggregation with permission, such as adjusting the upper limit of group aggregation or increasing the exempted group aggregation.

It is understood that the Hong Kong Government intends to launch the Hong Kong version of the health code to allow qualified persons from Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao to pass quarantine after crossing the border. Chen Zhaoshi said that the Hong Kong government hopes to gradually relax the requirements of the mandatory quarantine arrangement when feasible, so that Hong Kong can resume a certain level of personnel exchanges with the relevant countries and regions, thereby stimulating economic activities.

She said that on the basis of "Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Joint Prevention and Control", it seems that there are more limited conditions to relax the flow of people coming from Guangdong Province or Macau. The first stage will first consider facilitating the people who need to travel between Guangdong and Hong Kong or Hong Kong and Macao. After the relevant measures are implemented, the government will announce the details as soon as possible.
