History Repeating itself

According to the email today, more unfortunate crew have been detained and sent to PB.

Rumours were rife yesterday with talk of crew being held in the airport for over 24 hours without proper food/ bedding/ showers and then being sent to gulag. Pilots being sent to PB and cabin crew sent to hotels?

Does anyone have any more details about what happened? (Remember when the union would start emails with “This is rumour control, here are the facts.”)

Anyway…

We are at the point where testing positive is akin to committing a crime and even close proximity carries a mandatory prison sentence.

Without the obvious suggestion of leaving the circus, does anyone have any thoughts on how to
protect ourselves, our families and neighbours from being incarcerated?

I’ve heard testing at an outport before returning to HK is one mitigation strategy being used. Better to test positive overseas and be treated like a human than be treated like an animal in HK.
