Multi-District Lockdowns in Hong Kong for the 5th Day, Despite 0% Positive Rate in Consecutive Lockdowns

The Hong Kong authorities on Friday, Feb 5, 2021 announced two more mandatory lockdowns in Ma On Shan and Yuen Long.

The affected areas are two blocks in Fu Loy Garden on 7 Ma Wang Road in Yuen Long (see photos) and Heng Kong House of Heng On Estate at 1 Hang Kam Street in Ma On Shan.

All residents were required to be tested by 2am.

Since Jan 23, 2021, the Hong Kong government started to impose mandatory lockdowns by citing Chapter #599J of the Regulations on Disease Prevention and Control.

Since Feb 1, the government has been enforcing ambush-style lockdowns in multiple districts every day. Meanwhile, apart from the first two lockdowns, the government has found no positive case in all the operations they conducted since Jan 28.

The positive rates of the first two lockdowns on Jan 23 and Jan 26 are at 0.17% and 0.003% respectively.
