The new pneumonia epidemic in Hong Kong has rebounded, with 80 people diagnosed in the "dancing group".
He Boliang, Director of the Infection and Infectious Diseases Center of the University of Hong Kong, said today (23) that the current situation of the epidemic is worrying. He believes that the dance group "will not be surprising after 100 (confirmed)" in one or two days.
He suggested that the government issue a stay-at-home order to compulsory testing of people, otherwise they can still go to work and school, "the epidemic will only end."
Xu Shuchang, a government expert consultant and chair professor of the Department of Respiratory System at CUHK, said that the number of confirmed diagnoses has reached high double-digits in just a few days. He believes that the epidemic prevention measures should be immediately tightened to the previous "tightest level", including school closures and working at home , Suspension of large-scale indoor events, tightening of restaurants to two-person one, and early termination of business hours, etc. "Don't be more spicy, I believe the epidemic will take a long time."

The issuance of the mandatory testing order also suggests that a home order be issued to relevant persons.
He Boliang bluntly stated in the Hong Kong and Taiwan program "Millennium" today that the situation of the epidemic situation is worrying.
At present, the "bar group" has the largest number of people in Hong Kong, involving 103 people. He said that the number of dancing groups has reached 80 people. I believe "it won't be surprising if there are more than 100 people in the next one or two days."
He pointed out that the earliest confirmed case of the disease in the dancing group was on November 2. It is believed that there have been three generations of transmission now, and that it is inseparable from the government's relaxation of epidemic prevention measures before Halloween.
He Boliang agreed with the government to issue a mandatory testing order, but he emphasized that the arrangement should be fast; and the Mobil Junhao Banquet has suspected that there are groups appearing, and believes that the government "has no reason not to force people who have been there to be tested at a specified time."
He also pointed out that the government should also issue a stay-at-home order to those undergoing compulsory testing, prohibiting going out while waiting for the test results, otherwise the epidemic will never end.

Xu Shuchang: The confirmed case has been infected one or two weeks ago, and epidemic prevention should be tightened immediately
Xu Shuchang said on the same program that the local confirmed cases rose to high double-digit numbers in just a few days. The cases of unknown origin were distributed in different regions. Some patients were students and housewives. There were no special high-risk factors, indicating the existence of an invisible transmission chain in the community.
He also pointed out that in this outbreak, many patients were involved in dancing groups. For the first time, there was a confirmed case in a private dancing venue. The government should consider amending the law and dancing venues will be regulated by party rooms.
He also pointed out that the current confirmed case has been infected one or two weeks ago, so the government should immediately tighten the epidemic prevention measures, including school closures, work at home, etc., "Don’t believe that the epidemic has been erupting for a long time, so go quickly. If you reach three digits, you won’t be able to pass.” Tourism bubbles and customs clearance will become more and more distant.
He also said that the current anti-epidemic measures will expire on Thursday (26th), and he hopes that the government can "increase the severity" as soon as possible.
