Hong Kong reduces hotel quarantine for overseas visitors to three days
During this period people will be able to leave their place of residence, but cannot enter "places where there is active checking of vaccine passes," Lee said in Cantonese.
That includes bars, pubs, gyms and beauty parlors. People are also not allowed to visit nursing homes, schools and specified medical premises during the surveillance period. "They cannot participate in any activities where masks are to be taken off," Lee added. If they test negative on a rapid antigen test, they can take public transportation, go to work and enter shopping malls, he said.
"We have to strike a balance between risk level as well as our economic activity. Where risks could be controlled, we want to preserve maximum movement of people and to maintain Hong Kong's competitiveness," Lee said.
