Residents in Block R of Allway Gardens were infected with the mutant virus. The residents were sent to the quarantine center earlier. However, the government changed the arrangement so that they could leave as long as the test result was negative. The residents were arranged to go home for quarantine yesterday (9th).

Tsuen Wan District Councillor Zhao Enlai stated in a radio program today (10th) that due to documents or administrative misunderstandings, there are still several households who have to stay in Penny's Bay.

He also pointed out that he had received more than 30 requests for help earlier, saying that the residents had collective diarrhea after eating. However, there was no doctor on site at night when they left the camp and the antidiarrheal medicine had to wait for a long time. Administratively, this incident is very messy."

He pointed out that at that time, the occupancy rate of the Penny's Bay isolation camp was only about half, and he questioned whether the quarantine center could adequately cope during the peak period.

Zhao Enlai said that residents received notifications to go home yesterday. Due to documents or administrative misunderstandings, 20 households were stranded in the isolation camp, involving 30 to 40 people. Among them, more than 10 households could be "released" in the early morning. There are still a few households who have to stay in Penny's Bay. "As a result, the government administration is very messy this time."

He pointed out that residents originally had a quarantine order, and the quarantine on the 21st was not completed until May 25. Therefore, before leaving the quarantine center early, residents must sign a document with a doctor of the Department of Health to revoke the quarantine order and return home.

However, because the 20 households did not have relevant documents at that time, the quarantine center could not "release people."

Diarrhea after eating, there is no doctor on site at night to wait 3 to 4 hours for toilet paper

Zhao Enlai also pointed out that the environment of the quarantine center was poor. In the past, more than 30 households asked for help. They had diarrhea after eating. It is estimated that the food has gone bad and the lunch box has problems.

He pointed out that the residents had wanted to seek medical treatment from a doctor at the quarantine center, but there was no doctor in the isolation camp at night, and antidiarrheal medicine would have to wait for a long time to be available.

He said that toilet paper was needed due to diarrhea, but after seeking assistance from the Civil Security Team, he could not get it until 3 to 4 hours later, criticizing the chaotic administrative arrangements.
