Patrick Nip deflects question on compulsory testing

The Secretary for the Civil Service, Patrick Nip, would not say whether the coronavirus testing scheme could be made compulsory if not enough people volunteer for the program.
In an RTHK program today, he also dismissed suggestions that the third wave of coronavirus infections was caused by poor governance rather than lax community epidemic prevention, saying that the authorities had done everything they can in the past half year from virus detection to social distancing, and that the fight against the epidemic cannot be undertaken by the government alone, RTHK reports.
