10 raids discovered 163 people who violated the enforced inspection notice
The Hong Kong government currently issues mandatory testing announcements on a daily basis, requiring affected residents or people in specific locations to undergo testing, and sends staff to carry out unannounced inspections of relevant locations nearly every day to check whether residents have complied with mandatory test announcements. The government’s Facebook page “Tamar Terrace” said yesterday that during 10 inspections in the past 7 days, a total of 163 people violated the announcement, and 96 of them were fined 10,000 yuan.
