Hundreds of Hongkongers and several pro-democracy lawmakers marched in Kwai Chung District on Feb. 16 to protest a government plan to name an outpatient clinic as one of 18 designated coronavirus (COVID-19) treatment clinics in the city.
Locals taking part in the march, protesting plans to name the South Kwai Chung Jockey Club General Outpatient Clinic as one of those facilities, could be heard shouting slogans such as “the government’s incompetence kills Hong Kong people” and “there are no ‘rioters,’ only a tyrannical regime,” according to Hong Kong media.
