Coronavirus: bar clusters could mean delay in late-June easing of all social-distancing rules at HK pubs and restaurants, Lam says

Hong Kong’s leader has said that a third-phase easing in late June of social-distancing rules that would lift all restrictions on pubs and restaurants may be delayed because of recent Covid-19 infections tied to two bar clusters.

Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor also told reporters before the weekly meeting of her de facto cabinet on Tuesday that there would be no wide adjustments before June 30 to other pandemic measures, such as reducing the seven-day hotel quarantine for arrivals.
