Hong Kong tightened social distancing measures to combat a fresh coronavirus outbreak in a city that had largely managed to quash local transmissions in recent months, according to AFP.
“Now that the pandemic is coming back, I appeal to everyone to reduce outings, gatherings and dining together,” Health Minister Sophia Chan told reporters.
Authorities announced a reintroduction of limits to how many people can gather together, a repeat of measures taken earlier in the year that helped stifle the coronavirus outbreak.
