The third wave of outbreaks in Hong Kong has recently occurred, and the number of local infections is increasing. However, the epidemic did not affect the public's desire to go out. The public still took advantage of the Sunday holiday to go out, and the number of people on the streets in Mong Kok did not decrease. Many newly diagnosed cases have come from the tea restaurant group recently, and some citizens are worried about this, saying that if they are not necessary recently, they will try to avoid eating out.

The public also pointed out that the cause of the third wave of the outbreak may be related to the premature relaxation of the restaurant's restriction on restaurant aggregation, and the government's poor prevention and control of overseas import cases, criticizing home isolation is useless.

Some citizens still go out and eat dinner without fear of the epidemic

Hong Kong is facing the third wave of outbreaks, but on the streets of Mong Kok on Sunday, the flow of people is still the same as in the past, and there are also a large number of diners in some restaurants. Miss Chen, who pays little attention to the news, plans to go to the cinema to spend the holidays today (12th). She said that after hearing the news of the outbreak, she was worried, but she did not intend to change her plan to go out. Sufficient epidemic prevention measures are sufficient. She also pointed out that the government should not relax the restrictions on restaurant aggregation, thinking that it would be more appropriate to tighten up to 4 people per table.

Mr. Ma, a ramen shop diner studying pharmacy, also believes that there is no need to be overly anxious about the epidemic. He pointed out that there is still insufficient scientific evidence to prove that the new coronary pneumonia is spread by air, and the current anti-epidemic measures for restaurants, such as temperature testing and the installation of partitions, are sufficient. However, he believes that the restaurant’s restrictive measures are not effective enough. It is only a “spot cure, not a cure”. The government should strengthen quarantine measures against inbound people. For example, if all inbound people are compulsorily isolated and quarantined, it is a cure.

Citizens' emotional worries about the epidemic refuse to go out

Miss Huang went out in response to the vote in the primary election today, but indicated that she had no intention of eating out. Miss Huang said that she lacked confidence in the hygienic situation of restaurants outside the street. If it is common for restaurant employees to not wear masks strictly, they would only go to the deli to eat at work on weekdays. "The most important thing is hygiene. Before that, it was because of relaxation. Hygiene (anti-epidemic measures), then get another explosion."

Another citizen, Mr. Zhu, said that although he went out today, he emphasized that "just walk away after buying, and you will not eat street food." Zhu said that daily work will bring meals to avoid eating out. He also thinks that it is too late for the government to tighten the restriction measures again after the epidemic broke out again. "I shouldn't relax before." He also pointed out that the government has insufficient quarantine measures against inbound people, describing home isolation as false, "I have relatives who return directly to the housing enterprise after entering the country. If it is a hidden case, it will be passed around." He was asked whether he would participate soon. At the book fair held, Mr. Zhu pointed out that he would enter the exhibition in previous years, but in view of the recent epidemic situation, he would avoid going to places with high flow of people.
