Mindful that Chinese New Year is just around the corner – with all the family socialising that this entails – the Hong Kong government has wasted no time in slapping society with a fresh range of restrictions.

Here are the key ones that you should know about:

1. All large events will be cancelled.
2. Dining inside restaurants will be banned from 5:59pm until 4.59am each day.
3. There will be a limited number of diners on each table at restaurants, based on the category level that the restaurant has been assigned:
   1. At type B restaurants (where all staff are tested every 14 days): no more than two diners per table
   2. At type C restaurants (where all staff have had at least one does of vaccine): no more than four diners per table
   3. At type D restaurants (where all staff are fully vaccinated): no more than six diners per table
4. The following venues will all be closed: bars, karaoke spots, saunas, game centres, beauty clinics, mahjong parlours, swimming pools.
5. Cruise to No-where will be suspended.
6. Visits to hospitals and care homes will not be allowed.

These restrictions will be in place for two weeks, and will then be reassessed.
