Police officers escort a woman holding flowers and an electric candle out of Victoria Park in Hong Kong yesterday. Authorities banned this year’s gathering citing the COVID-19 pandemic — although Hong Kong has not recorded an untraceable local transmission in more than a month. Unable to muster en masse, many Hong Kong residents still found other ways to mourn the dead.
