Health officials lifted an overnight lockdown at four back-to-back tenement buildings in To Kwa Wan on Monday morning, while a separate exercise in Kwai Chung was continuing.

Officials say they tested about people at 18 and 20 Yin On Street and 17 and 19 Tsun Fat Street after starting the lockdown at 8pm on Sunday. Those who tested negative were allowed to leave at 7am.

In Kwai Chung, the lockdown covers Shek Wah House on the Shek Lei (II) Estate and was ordered after the virus was found in sewage samples. Officials had said they intended to end the exercise at about 7am.
