Last update date: 2020-08-07 07:00The local new crown pneumonia epidemic has not eased. The Department of Health yesterday (6th) reported that there were 95 new confirmed cases on the previous day (5th), bringing the cumulative number of cases to 3,850. Zhang Zhujun, director of the Department of Infectious Diseases of the Centre for Health Protection, said that about 60 newly confirmed cases were newly confirmed yesterday, which is close to the 4,000 mark.
Two Indian domestic helpers who had lived in the dormitory of an employment agency have been diagnosed. Due to the crowded dormitory environment and the sharing of facilities in the house, Hong Kong is at risk of a major outbreak like a dormitory for foreign workers in Singapore. The government said late last night that it would test foreign domestic helpers living in intermediary dormitories for free and distribute masks.
In addition, the Civil and Municipal Affairs Department today (7th) has expanded the service coverage of the community testing program to cover Wong Tai Sin, Kwun Tong, Tuen Mun and Yau Tsim Mong districts, covering 46 buildings and approximately 86,000 residents.
