Health officials on Monday imposed lockdowns on three buildings in Kowloon City and Kwai Chung, after sewage samples there tested positive for Covid-19.

The buildings are Sheung Ching House and Mun Ching House at Kai Ching Estate and Shek Hing House at Shek Lei (l) Estate. Residents must get tested for the coronavirus and remain at home until further notice.

Officials expect to wrap up the operation in Kwai Chung at around 11am on Tuesday, and the ones in Kowloon City at around noon.
