[07:00] Although the fifth wave of the epidemic has passed the peak in March, the current epidemic is still hovering at the level of 200 to 300 cases per day. After the relaxation of social distancing measures, multiple clusters broke out.

Leung Cheuk-wai, an expert advisor to the government and dean of the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Hong Kong, infers with a virus calculation model that if one is not careful, there will be a sixth wave of the epidemic in Hong Kong in two weeks, which will arouse the attention of the whole city.

Kwok Kin-an, an assistant professor at the School of Public Health and Primary Care at CUHK, believes that the peak of the outbreak is expected in autumn and winter, and stressed that the sixth wave will only occur when a new variant of the virus hits Hong Kong, and now it is only the fifth wave.
