Hong Kong has so far recorded nearly 2.6 million cases of Covid so far.

The new surge in cases happened as the government gave more details of the easing of pandemic restrictions, including the gradual resumption of classes starting in February next year.

According to a press statement, the Education Development Board has decided that, regardless of student vaccination rates, all secondary schools (including secondary sections of special schools) will resume whole-day face-to-face classes from February 1 while primary schools (including primary sections of special schools) and kindergartens will resume from February 15.

However, the negative RAT test result currently required of students and staff will continue until January 31 at the earliest.

As the Vaccine Pass scheme has been lifted starting on December 29, anybody entering school premises will no longer be asked to produce their vaccination record.

Arrangements for after-school activities have also been relaxed so that students on half-day classes may return to schools for after-class activities in the afternoon.
