As part of the anti-epidemic work, the TD has required all staff to wear masks. In view of public health considerations, members of the public entering TD's offices have to undergo on-the-spot body temperature checks arranged by the TD. Any member of the public whose body temperature is higher than 37.5 degrees Celsius or who refuses to undergo a body temperature check will be denied entry into the offices. The offices will also request members of the public to wear masks and clean their hands with alcohol-based sanitiser before entering the offices.
