The government on Sunday gazetted 64 buildings for mandatory testing, as it attempted to prevent a fifth wave of Covid-19 breaking out in the SAR.

Thirteen buildings, all of them Sai Ying Pun, were listed because sewage samples had tested positive for the coronavirus. Sai Ying Pun is location of the Ursus gym, the centre of a cluster of 99 cases.

The gym was frequented by many people who work in the Central business district. Major banks and a law firm feature on the list.

All but eight of the buildings on the list were on Hong Kong island, most were in Central and Western district.
