  In response to the development of the epidemic situation, the SAR Government will internally discuss the feasibility of relevant measures from time to time and make adjustments in due course. I also hope that the public will continue to maintain personal and environmental hygiene and reduce community contact when the local epidemic situation is relatively alleviated.
