The government on Sunday locked down eight residential blocks in Kowloon City, Yuen Long and Aberdeen, after sewage samples from the buildings tested positive for Covid-19.
Residents of Lok Ching House, Yan Ching House, and Hong Ching House at Kai Ching Estate, as well as those living at Shin Oi House, Shin Yung House and Shin Leung House at Long Shin Estate, or Hoi Chun Court and Hoi Chu Court in the Aberdeen Centre, must get tested for the coronavirus, and then stay at home.
Authorities said they suspected there were asymptomatic patients in the buildings and they hope to complete the testing exercise at around noon or 1 pm on Monday.
Anyone who has spent more than two hours in the buildings between February 21 and March 6 must also get tested by Tuesday.
