There will be discussions to look at ways of ensuring we can balance the economic issues with the need to stop the virus from moving - Dr Fong
Permanent Secretary for Health Dr James Fong

The Permanent Secretary for Health Dr James Fong says once the upcoming lockdown is finished, he knows there will be lots of discussions happening within all the other agencies for them to look at ways of ensuring that they can balance the economic issues with the need to stop the virus from moving.

Dr.Fong says there are intense discussions on how they can manage workers to be at work without increasing their risk of getting infected.

Dr Fong further says every time you open a business , you increase movement and ideally what they want to do is open businesses and narrowly track how exactly people move.

He says unfortunately tracking the movement of people requires some degree of oversight and that means everybody who is providing the information has to tell the same story.

Dr.Fong adds they are looking at something called quarantine corridors that allows people to move.
