The government on Thursday imposed lockdowns on four residential blocks in Tai Po and Tuen Mun.

Authorities made the announcement after sewage samples from Fu Cheong, Kwai Cheong and Wing Cheong Courts of Fortune Plaza in Tai Po came back positive for Covid-19, while several infections were found in Hing Ping House of Tai Hing Estate in Tuen Mun.

Residents of the four blocks are required to stay home and undergo compulsory testing.

Officials say they aim to finish both operations at 7am on Friday.

Those who stayed in the Fortune Plaza buildings for more than two hours from January 21 to February 3, as well as those who spent more than two hours in Hing Ping House from January 24 to February 3, must get tested by Saturday.
