The epidemic has ushered in the third wave of outbreaks recently. There have been dozens of new confirmed cases in Hong Kong in recent days. The government has launched a new round of anti-epidemic measures, including restaurants not allowing dine-in after 6 pm.

The Legislative Council Secretariat has just received notice today (16th) that an assistant member of parliament working on the 8th floor of the Legislative Council Complex, whose family members are listed as direct contacts of the initial diagnosis of new coronary pneumonia. The Legislative Council Secretariat has taken preventive measures to strengthen the cleaning and disinfection of common areas and facilities on the 8th floor and the complex.

According to the news, the assistant of the congressman is the assistant of Chen Shuzhuang, a member of the Legislative Council of the Citizen Party. The reporter of "Hong Kong 01" is inquiring about the office of Mr. Chen Shuzhuang.

The Legislative Council Secretariat sent an e-mail to Members to inform this matter.

Yang Yueqiao, the leader of the Citizen Party, expressed condolences to the assistant colleague and his family on behalf of the Citizen Party. Yang said that the family member had been sent to quarantine as a direct contact. The assistant did not go to work and developed symptoms, and colleagues in the relevant offices did not have any symptoms. They were fully quarantined. I believe there will be a report tomorrow.

He said that there have been 67 confirmed cases today, the highest in a single day since the beginning of the epidemic. Therefore, the Civic Party requested the chairman to temporarily suspend all meetings, stop the operation of the Legislative Council building, and conduct disinfection until the relevant colleagues' inspection results show that it is safe.

He emphasized that human life and health have priority over the appropriation, and hopes that the chairman of the Finance Committee, Chen Jianbo, will not take the lead in politics and cancel tomorrow's Finance Committee meeting.

Guo Jiaqi said on the social networking site: "Because the Citizens Party has a Legislative Council to help colleagues’ family members be listed as direct contacts of the initial diagnoses, in order to take into account public health and avoid all unnecessary risks, the primary vote will be cancelled, and All activities will also be suspended until the test results of the relevant colleagues show safety."

The New Democratic Party office is also located on the 8th floor. Chairman Ye Liu Shuyi pointed out that according to her knowledge, the counsel involved did not go to work and the office did not work. However, since the staff on the same floor share the restrooms, to ensure safety, disinfection of the entire floor on the 8th floor will be arranged. And let all colleagues work at home and measure body temperature daily for medical monitoring.
