HONG KONG: A new Hong Kong ban on dining at restaurants and food stalls aimed at reining in a spike in COVID-19 cases threatens to complicate life for the many people in the city who depend on eating out for daily meals.
"Many people don’t cook or cannot cook. Lots of old people cannot cook. Most of my friends don’t have kitchens - they eat out for every meal," said a car driver who gave his surname as Chong as he walked through the bustling Wan Chai district where food stalls line the streets. The ban on restaurant dining is one of several new restrictions imposed to curb the virus - tightening a rule put in place earlier this month which forbade dining at restaurants after 6pm.Other restrictions announced on Monday include mandatory face masks in all public places and a ban on gatherings of more than two people.
