Ten Covid cases were found on Thursday in overnight lockdowns of residential blocks in Sham Shui Po and Tsuen Wan, out of more than 2,900 residents tested.

Five were picked up at Cheung Tin House of Pak Tin Estate, and the rest were from Fung Shue House of Lei Muk Shue Estate.

Residents underwent PCR tests after the government’s risk assessment based on viral load in sewage, positive cases there and other circumstantial factors.

Separately, the government on Thursday sealed off Lung Lok House at Lower Wong Tai Sin (II) Estate in Wong Tai Sin for Covid tests.
