Social Distancing Measures in Classrooms
- Guidelines on options for fully online, mixed mode and face-to-face teaching have been disseminated to all teaching staff for planning and classroom booking, which will be revised as and when necessary in response to the prevailing risk level. For more information, please see FAQs related to COVID-19 (for Semester 1,2020) at HKU’s Teaching & Learning website.

- Automatic hand sanitizer dispensers have been installed in all classrooms to facilitate the practice of good hand hygiene.
- Guidelines on general infection control on campus with particular reference to those in classrooms have been drawn up and disseminated to the university community. Under the guidelines, wearing of masks is required, while eating or drinking is not allowed.
