Sophia Chan Siu-chee says the pandemic would be easier to contain if more people are to join the citywide test scheme. Health chief says the pandemic would be easier to contain if more people are to join the citywide test scheme, which is set to begin on September 1. Speaking on a radio program, Sophia Chan Siu-chee says it would be hard to estimate the number of participants volunteering to join the two-week test, as citizens might be less vigilant when the pandemic situation eases. The testing centres will be set across all districts in Hong Kong, opening from 8am to 8pm. Test results would be sent by text message.
