(Bloomberg) --
Hong Kong confirmed at least 20 new coronavirus cases on Saturday, the South China Morning Post reported, citing a medical source.
It was not yet known how many of Saturday’s cases were locally transmitted, the SCMP said. On Thursday, the city recorded 34 locally transmitted infections, the most in a single day since the pandemic began.
In response to the surge, the government over the weekend reintroduced social restrictions that cap restaurant capacity at 60% and limit eight people to a table. The rules will be in place for two weeks, unless extended.
