He Boliang said in a radio program that the epidemic has eased recently, and we should be prepared for danger before the "fourth wave" of the epidemic occurred. Due to the multiple months and the third wave of the epidemic in July, many elderly people in residential institutions have been infected and have increased their deaths. The community should pay attention to the ventilation system and environmental conditions of elderly homes and disabled homes, mainly due to air circulation, to reduce the risk of transmission.

He said that the internal environment of many homes is not as well understood and mastered by the outside world, and some beds are relatively dense. "The environment is less than that of restaurants in minutes." It is necessary to help increase anti-virus measures such as air purifiers and ultraviolet lights. Many infections are believed to come from employees and their families who are out of town. It is also important to strengthen random inspections.

The European side is so serious, there is a need

In addition, he also mentioned that the current four-person gathering restriction is "unconditionally relaxed." The government can further report daily test numbers on a daily basis to reassure the outside world. In order to reduce the risk of foreign infection, the Hong Kong government should focus on those who come to Hong Kong. Checking at the border will be tightened until the quarantine result is negative within 48 hours before arriving in Hong Kong. It is not 72 hours in some areas, so as to avoid confusion and can be safer, and can be in line with the measures in the Mainland. "The European side is so serious. There is a need for it." At the same time, I agree that it can be used as a negotiated terms for customs clearance.
