While Hong Kong’s infections remain comparatively low — just over 1,000 cases and four deaths — schools have been shut since late January and authorities have ramped up social distancing measures in recent weeks.But music tutors like Evan Kam are trying to keep personal lessons going — whilst reducing the risk of infection for both teachers and students.
The tutoring centre where Kam works saw business plunge by 70 percent in February when infections first crossed into Hong Kong from mainland China.Inspired by mobile libraries, the company rented three trucks and fitted them into mobile music classrooms, complete with air-conditioning and soundproof boards.
“We like to offer our services directly to where the students live to shorten their travelling time,” she added.
