A spokesman for the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council said in response to an inquiry on February 10 that the fifth wave of the epidemic in Hong Kong is menacing, which has brought a serious impact on the safety and health of citizens and the economy and people's livelihood, and the central government is highly concerned about this. In times of crisis, the motherland will always be the strong backer of Hong Kong. As long as Hong Kong has a request, the motherland will certainly respond.
A reporter asked: Carrie Lam, chief executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, said in a recent meeting with the media that the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council conveyed to her the central government's concerns about the epidemic in Hong Kong and its greetings to the Hong Kong people, and said that she would provide support at any time in response to Hong Kong's needs. Could you please provide further information? The spokesman made the above remarks in response to questions.
