The government on Friday put two public housing blocks in Sham Shui Po under lockdown after sewage samples taken from the buildings tested positive for Covid.
Officials said they suspect there are asymptomatic patients in Begonia House at So Uk Estate and Un Shing House at Un Chau Estate, and the risk of infection in the areas is likely to be higher.
Residents of the buildings are required to undergo Covid tests and stay at home.
Authorities said they expect to wrap up the operations by noon on Saturday.
