0% Positive Rate: Citizens and Local Busines Severely Affected by HK Government's #AmbushLockdown

The Hong Kong government ambushed citizens in the third compulsory lockdown in one week.

Following Jordan on Jan 23 and Yau Ma Tei on Jan 26, four buildings in North Point were under lockdown for the authorities to impose #COVID19 test on all civilians in the area on Jan 28, 2021.

Medical personnel wearing protective garments filled the street, disrupting local businesses. Other stores in nearby area post signs, explaining their abrupt closure due to the government's operation.

Meanwhile, among the supplies provided by the government, one can find boxes of bottled water, which is likely from a mainland Chinese brand, with simplified characters written on it.

At 7am on Jan 29, the government found no positive case among the 475 people tested.
