The new crown pneumonia epidemic in Hong Kong seems to be easing. It was announced yesterday (1st) that 12 new confirmed cases were announced, of which 9 were local cases, and no more than 10 were initially positive.

The Universal Community Testing Program (National Testing) was launched today (2nd) on the second day. As of 11:45, a total of 745,000 appointments have been made.

Director of Food and Sanitation Bureau Chen Zhaoshi and Director of Home Affairs Bureau Xu Yingwei held a press conference this afternoon, announcing that dine-in meals will be relaxed until 10 pm from Friday (September 4). At the same time, they also announced the reopening of fitness centers, cinemas and beauty salons. Can remain open.

[15:04] Why does the Partyroom have no share with the K room?

Is there any scientific basis for eating in until 10 o'clock?

Huaxing Center has done 300,000 inspections a day, why is there no number so far?

Chen Zhaoshi pointed out that at present, it is mainly how to relax and relax, and gradually and orderly relax if possible. Although some people think it is a small step, they still need to be careful. There are still invisible patients, because the press conference is still heard at 4:30 every day. Therefore, the one-step relaxation is a detailed step. Special experts have reminded you to observe what you can do during the relaxation. If there are personnel on the stage, the relaxation will be moderately relaxed if conditions are available; after the completion of the universal community test, the situation of invisible transmission can be clearer. , You can also find close contacts, you can consider the next step to relax.

Yesterday, 126,000 people completed the sampling, and they were all safely transported to the laboratory. The number is so large. At this stage, there is no figure to know how many cases have been diagnosed. If the latest information is available, it will be announced to everyone.

[14:59] Why not relax football and basketball?

Can the local league be relaxed?

What is the relaxation of ten o'clock and 11 o'clock and 12 o'clock?

The contract for the Fanling Golf Course has arrived.

Chen Zhaoshi pointed out that ten o’clock is a balance. Many people have to respond to their demands when they go to nine o’clock. However, the longer they eat to remove masks, the longer the time, the greater the risk of infection, so there must be conditions and restrictions on the number of people. , The measures are limited.

Xu Yingwei pointed out that whether to consider opening up is related to physical contact; foreign countries can start competitions. Because of the sports bubbles, the FA has mentioned similarities, and some have leaned against them. The preliminary proposal has been submitted. IKEA is tight and initially allows several teams to resume first. Details will be announced.

There are sanitary requirements for water activities.

The golf course has a short-term license extension and can continue to play.

The directions are all started slowly.

[14:54] What are the reasons for the relaxation to ten points?

Is it too short to worry about becoming a crowd?

Have you ever discussed relaxing the limit on the number of people?

At present, the restrictions are gradually relaxed. Although there is a decline now, there are still no source cases, so only two persons can be maintained. The next step of relaxation depends on the situation and the results of universal testing. I understand that the industry hopes to relax more people. But no conditions are available.

As of 12:00, there are 745,000 appointments for universal testing. Many of the fallacies are clearly explained. The more people participate, the better. Many people share their experience and hope that more people can participate.

[14:47] Why not relax in one go, why do you have to draw a line at ten?

Chen Zhaoshi pointed out that there are still cases of unknown origin in the epidemic, and it is necessary to balance public health while monitoring the epidemic. Obviously, it is necessary to consider its needs and open until 10 pm, mainly because many citizens report that the night market is relatively late to 9 pm, and Hong Kong People work late at night and have to eat dinner later. As for the fitness center, it is mainly because of the anti-epidemic for 8 months, everyone is stunned.

Regarding the relaxation of the restrictions of Regulation 599, the number of confirmed cases must be considered, and the public must be careful to let the public know that they must be cautious including wearing masks at all times, so the relaxation can only be done gradually.

At present, due to the support of the central government, large-scale testing can be done and the chain of transmission can be cut off. However, even if the source of the case is found, epidemic prevention measures such as wearing a mask must still be observed. The epidemic situation will continue for a while.

[14:43] Xu Yingwei pointed out that there are still many cases with no source in order to balance between public activities and diagnosis. I have talked with the industry if there are methods to allow exercise and do not want to go across the board. Talk to the industry now. Body temperature is measured and the distance is 1.5 meters. Therefore, some non-aerobic exercises, etc., can be gradually opened up if the size is not applied; if the number is gradually stable, it can be gradually reduced. Therefore, consider a multi-pronged approach. There are current recommendations, but the measures are still tight , And the LCSD premises in mid-September, depending on the situation can open more.

[14:39] Why do we need to wear masks in fitness centers?

Why can table tennis have 4 people, and the rest have to maintain 2 people?

When can the gathering restriction order be relaxed?

Some members of the public expressed that they seem to be in a hurry, and they also hope that they will maintain their physical and mental health. After fighting the epidemic for more than half a year, everyone is good. Therefore, resuming sports activities will help both the body and mind and the citizens have aspirations. Therefore, relax the fitness center without removing masks and have less exposure. There is a limit on the number of people.

As for the restaurants, there are still two people, hoping to relax in an orderly manner under the new normal. It feels risky to relax too much.

More than 90% of the appointments for the community testing program have been made, and more than 120,000 people have been tested. There is no number so far. If there is any confirmed diagnosis, it will be reviewed by the Public Health Laboratory.

[14:37] To effectively prevent the epidemic, citizens must cooperate and actively participate in the community-wide testing program, identify invisible patients, cut off the chain of community transmission, and probe the social situation.

[14:30] Chen Zhaoshi, Director of the Food and Health Bureau, and Xu Yingwei, Director of the Home Affairs Bureau, held a press conference. Chen pointed out that the coronavirus disease in 2019 is still severe and there are many new figures. Many experts said that there will be no effective vaccines. Coexistence is a protracted war. Hong Kong cannot survive the global outbreak. The local case has fallen but has not stabilized. It is necessary to maintain vigilance against the epidemic and maintain social distancing.

People want to maintain a normal life, but they still have to act cautiously. Therefore, they can only relax under safe conditions to help their mental, physical and mental health.

To give the public more opportunities to exercise to deal with the epidemic.

Starting from Friday, the measures will be gradually relaxed, and the dine-in will be extended to ten o'clock in the evening. Other requirements will remain unchanged. The fitness center will be reopened except for the skating rink, sports grounds, and movie theaters and beauty salons.

However, the mandatory wearing of masks will be maintained, and gatherings of more than two people will be prohibited. The limited period is from September 4 to September 10.

Nationwide Testing | HA Staff Front Named by Lam Cheng: If you give advice, you will be regarded as anti-government

[09:40] The staff front of the Hospital Authority recently claimed that the test lacks scientific basis and called for boycotting the test.

Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor retorted point by point, and hoped that the staff front would "return to the shore" and support the testing plan.

The Deputy Chairman of the Staff Front of the Hospital Authority, Lo Zhu Yao, stated on the radio program that the recent two governments have changed their attitudes towards experts and professional organizations. Once opinions are raised, they will soon be marked as "anti-central and anti-government" and the government will not accept experts. The way to do so is that politics override professional opinions, and even override public health.

Luo said, "I want to ask him to turn his head back on the shore" and make good use of the resources of the "national team" to do scientifically based things, such as strengthening the work of tracking close contacts of confirmed patients and conducting more than one virus test for high-risk individuals.
