Proper Masks wearing is the single most important defense against infectious airborne disease.

You are crazy....

I will prefer to continue keep the mask on.

I felt that those reusable mask is not as comfortable compared to medical mask. So I am only using the medical mask. 

Maybe because in the younger days working in clean room for whole day long, it is a lot more uncomfortable compared to wearing just a mask. Which is not a problem to me.

If I am outside, just carry extra change every 4 hours.

Did HK ever go through two weeks of no local cases though?

At current phase restrictions we should go a few weeks more easily, unless somebody at the border or in charge of SHN makes a mistake.

Actually wearing of mask is good for health also even there is no covid. Lesser chance of falling sick eversince wearing of mask become mandatory.

No idea.

As we did not have any mass testing, it is safer not to ease up so soon.

I remember HK had zero local cases for 3 weeks in June, so they ease certain measures and locally transmitted cases started again

I don’t like surgical mask, its too hot and cause alot pimple. Only if cases of covid high i will wear surgical mask, currently low community cases, wearing merlion mask best. Comfortable to breath, more clean as u ownself wash. Some surgical mask company might have issue with hygiene in their production.

Many cities in china don't need to wear masks already. Since some months ago.

They're not saying it, but neighborhood clinics do not like you to wear masks. They reduce walk-in patients by 60%.

It would have been a problem with easing without T&T and mistakes that were made mid-year regarding air and sea crews being allowed to enter HK without proper testing or quarantine. Later on these rules were tightened up but likely the damage was done.

I read reports also of incoming travellers that skipped out of hotels and were not properly supervised, same as here until wrist bands were fitted.

HK if their garment start to more tight on movement control, their people will start to make noise no human right. Like AMDK.
