Nineteen locations in Sha Tin, including Royal Park Hotel, are among 68 premises named in Thursday's compulsory testing notice.

They included Hotel COZI Harbour View, Kwun Tong; Block M1, Kornhill, Quarry Bay; Hong Kong Sports Institute in Sha Tin; and Civil Service Bureau in government headquarters, Admiralty.
