They said that Hong Kong's top priority is to cut off the spread of the epidemic. The successful experience of the mainland has proved that it is an effective approach to complete compulsory testing for all people in a short period of time. They also say that Hong Kong has strong and unswerving support from the country. The SAR government requested support from the central government, and dispatched manpower and resources to Hong Kong to assist in the nationwide compulsory testing.

They suggested that the government take the opportunity of the "vaccine passport" to use the real-name vaccination records to implement the "safe travel" real-name system as soon as possible, and add tracking functions and data centralization.

They urged the government to implement the "Vaccine Pass" early, include more places in the designated scope of the "Vaccine Pass", and take more aggressive measures to encourage citizens to receive 3 doses of the vaccine, so as to consider allowing some places to resume business.

In addition, they called for a district-wide mandatory inspection of areas that tested positive for sewage, and called on employers and employees to actually implement work-from-home arrangements.
