The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region government called on all members of the public to continue showing support for the fight against the pandemic by conducting a rapid antigen test (RAT) and reporting positive cases within 24 hours.

In a statement issued yesterday morning, the government said the RAT exercise can help cut transmission chains in the community and facilitates the government’s understanding of the pandemic situation in the city.
