RTHK sources on Saturday said an airport worker had tested preliminary positive for Covid-19.

The latest case was identified through mandatory Covid testing at Hong Kong International Airport, after an airline ground staff member was infected two weeks ago.

Earlier, the Centre for Health Protection reported an imported Covid case, a 16-year-old boy who had flown in from the UK.

He was in quarantine at a Hung Hom hotel, when he tested positive for the virus.

He did not have any symptoms.
