6 people take off their masks on the same table and eat more risk than 4 people wear masks

The government loosened a restaurant for 6 people this Friday, and the limit for gatherings is maintained at 4 people. Xu Shuchang, Chair Professor of Respiratory Department of CUHK, pointed out that "this part is actually unbalanced" and believes that the number of people should be the same for the public to accept. And will not be confused.

He said, "Six people eat with masks on the same table, and the risk of infection must be higher than that of four people wearing masks waiting for a seat outside the restaurant. Indoors are not as good as outdoor air circulation. Relatively high, indoor infection risks are higher."

As an expert consultant of the government's anti-epidemic steering committee, he said that when he met with the government, he only discussed the principles, and officials decided to implement the measures, and it had nothing to do with them.

He believes that it is reasonable to take advantage of the easing of the epidemic to relax the measures, but to make it convenient for the public, "it is impossible for 6 people to return to the channel and 4 people."

Xu Shuchang believes that the most important thing for bars to relax each table to 4 people and allow live performances is to follow the relevant guidelines.

He pointed out that in the second wave of the epidemic, there was a band group infection, and "the risk of singing all the way is high." He believes that staying in the performance area and separating it with plastic sheets can help reduce the risk.

He also said that it is a good idea to set up a community testing center, which is much more convenient for the public. It can also provide timely testing for relevant groups when there is an outbreak.

The government’s purpose is obvious to all, thinking it is fooling the public

Ms. Wu, the audience, called the program and said that the number of restrictions on the number of measures is incomprehensible, and questioned whether the six people have to eat in batches.

She did not see that the authorities usually enforce the four-person restriction order on the street. The only situation she saw that the police would enforce the law was in some online calls for activities, criticizing the authorities for not enforcing the anti-epidemic law. The government’s purpose is obvious to all. Think it is fooling the public.
