******************************************************************************************
     ​In light of positive test results for the COVID-19 virus from sewage samples collected in Tsuen Wan, Kwun Tong and Wan Chai Districts, the Home Affairs Department (HAD) said today (June 16) that the Tsuen Wan District Office (TWDO), the Kwun Tong District Office (KTDO) and the Wan Chai District Office (WCDO) have distributed a total of about 187 000 COVID-19 rapid test kits to households, cleansing workers and property management staff living and working in the Districts.
 
     The TWDO and the KTDO distributed rapid test kits to households, cleansing workers and property management staff living and working in Luk Yeung Sun Chuen, the Cairnhill, Fairview Garden, the Cliveden, Tsuen Fung Centre, Waldorf Centre, Fou Wah Centre and Bellagio in Tsuen Wan District and Richland Gardens in Kwun Tong District for voluntary testing through the property management companies.
 
     In addition, the WCDO distributed rapid test kits to households, cleansing workers and property management staff living and working in Greenville Gardens, Beverly Court, Moon Fair Mansion, Mandarin Villa, Miramar Villa, 1 Shiu Fai Terrace and 8 Shiu Fai Terrace, Silver Fair Mansion, Stubbs Villa, Shiu Fai Terrace Garden, Sheffield Garden, K. Y. Mansion, Kensington Court, Chantilly, Golden Fair Mansion, Josephine Court, Elizabeth House, Lockhart House, Golden Jubilee House, Wah Fat Mansion, Wai Sun Building, Hyde Centre, Fook Gay Mansion, Jet Foil Mansion, Lockhart House, Dandenong Mansion, Kei Wa Building, Besthing Mansion, Ascot Mansion, Chi King Court and 427 Lockhart Road for voluntary testing through the owners' corporations and the property management companies.
 
     The HAD made the above arrangements in the hope of identifying infected persons early.
 
     Members of the public may refer to the demonstration video produced by the Centre for Health Protection (CHP) under the Department of Health (DH) via www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzFAUzTtmKk to learn how to use the rapid antigen test (RAT) kit.
 
     Persons testing positive through an RAT should take a photo of the test result and declare the result within 24 hours via the Declaration System for Individuals Tested Positive for COVID-19 Using Rapid Antigen Test (www.chp.gov.hk/ratp). If members of the public encounter difficulties in using the online platform, they can call the automated system at 183 6119 to register their identification document and telephone number. The CHP under the DH will contact the relevant person later to complete the report procedure. There is no need to declare negative test results.
 
     The Government appeals for the co-operation of members of the public to safeguard the health of themselves and their families by undergoing testing on a voluntary basis and fighting the virus together. The Government urges all individuals who are in doubt about their own health condition, or individuals with infection risks (such as individuals who visited places with epidemic outbreaks or had contact with cases that tested positive), to undergo testing promptly for early identification of infected persons to reduce the transmission risks of COVID-19.
