Double standards? Government House, Police Headquarter and Consulates spared from Lockdown despite COVID-19-positive wastewater samples
Hong Kong authorities continued its lockdown strategy in many grassroot housing estates over the past several weeks, in order to achieve China's dynamic zero COVID objective, which has grievously affected lives of thousands of local residents.
Whenever wastewater samples tested positive for the COVID-19 virus, the whole housing estate could be locked down for 3-5 days, and its residents subject to mandatory testing.
On February 5, the authorities announced that wastewater samples from six sewage monitoring areas were found positive for the virus. It indicated that there may be hidden cases in the premises within these areas.
Among these areas were Peak Road, Magazine Gap Road and Cotton Tree Drive, including the Government House where the Chief Executive Carrie Lam resides.
Also in the area are Grenville House, home of former Chief Executive Tung Chee-hwa; the Police Headquarters; the Consulate General of the U.S; and the British Consulate General.
Instead of locking down these areas and conducting mandatory COVID-19 testing as it had done elsewhere, the authorities only dispatched 3 sets of rapid test kit for the affected residents to self-test.
Responding to local media inquiry, a spokesperson for the government claims that these rapid test kits are the "newest approach" for COVID-19 testing, and deployment arrangements may differ according to the situation in each affected area. The Office of the Chief Executive said the Chief Executive and her family members will conduct the self-test as required.
