Secretary for Food and Health Ignores #DistrictCouncillor's Demand to Explain Why Residents Are Tested Twice
Lee Wai-lam, district councillor in Lam Tin, questioned the government's enforcement of lockdown of #LagunaCity. He pointed out that 90% of the residents in the "restricted area" had been tested in the past three days, following the order of the government.
Despite the negative results, the government imposed an ambush-style lockdown on Jan 31, 2021, ordering residents in two blocks of the housing estate to be tested again by 2am on Feb 1.
Lee asked the Secretary for Food and Health Sophia Chan who visited the site to explain the government's rationale in testing the residents twice within a week. Chan, however, did not give any answer.
Lee reiterated that the government's arbitrary decision to impose what Carrie Lam called "ambush-style" lockdown is insensible, pointless and obstructing.
