Authorities have placed five buildings, in Yuen Long, Tsing Yi, Sha Tin, Kwai Chung and Kowloon City, under overnight lockdown after sewage samples from the blocks tested positive for Covid.
Yiu Tai House at Tin Yiu (II) Estate, Block 6 of Mayfair Gardens, Ming Yiu Lau at Jat Min Chuen, Shek On House at Shek Lei (l) Estate, and Tak Ying House at Tak Long Estate were cordoned off on Thursday afternoon.
Residents are required to undergo testing, as officials suspect there are people with Covid who don't have any symptoms in the buildings.
Authorities said they plan to finish the lockdown operations at around noon or in the afternoon on Friday.
Anyone who spent more than two hours in any of the blocks from February 18 to March 3 also has to take a Covid test.
