HKSAR gov't to start distributing anti-epidemic service bags to households

The work of distributing the anti-epidemic service bags fully demonstrates the spirit of concerted cooperation among the HKSAR government, all sectors of the community, and the public in fighting the COVID-19 epidemic, said Jack Chan, acting secretary for home affairs of the HKSAR government.

"We again express our gratitude to the country. We firmly believe that with the staunch support from our motherland, as long as Hong Kong citizens are united in one heart to fight the epidemic, Hong Kong will definitely win this battle," Chan said.

Hong Kong registered 2,743 new COVID-19 cases by nucleic acid tests, and 3,080 additional positive cases through self-reported rapid antigen tests on Friday, official data showed.
