Hong Kong confirms first coronavirus deathHealth workers have walked out over authorities' refusal to close border with mainland China And then this morning Carrie Lam said in a press con, “civil servants are not allowed to wear masks except if they are frontline workers - if they wear it they will have to take it off” Where on Earth does this woman’s mind go to? Tens of thousands are traveling from China to HongKong every single day even after recent govt measures. The govt does not recognize the seriousness. It needs to close the borders with China ASAP to stop spreading the coronavirus. Will Carrie Lam ever listen to the advise of medical experts and enforce border control? She is pushing everyone off the cliff now
