Withdrawal of the isolation order｜More than 240,000 people have used the Hetao cabin, which has never been used. Seven isolation facilities have been turned into standby
[08:00] The government’s cancellation of the isolation order for those diagnosed with the new crown today also means that the community isolation facilities have completed their historical mission.
According to the information, there are currently eight community isolation facilities in Hong Kong. Among them, the Penny’s Bay community isolation facility was first opened in April 2020, and the rest were only completed in March last year. Most of them have been in use for only two months.
In addition, the shelter hospital in Hetao District has never been used.
Liu Yulong, a government expert consultant, believes that the new crown pneumonia is now coming to an end, there will be no more major rebounds, and there will be no famous and frightening mutant virus strains. It is suggested that only one or two community isolation facilities should be reserved for isolation purposes.
Chen Kaixin, a constituency member of the Election Committee, believes that there is still a need to retain the Penny’s Bay Community Isolation Facility, which can also be used for isolation if a large unknown infectious disease breaks out in the future. As for other community isolation facilities, they are used as transitional housing or youth dormitories .
She also suggested that the Penny's Bay Community Isolation Facility could also be used as a respite center for residents, so as to facilitate the comprehensive renovation and addition of anti-epidemic facilities.
