Four Covid Cases Linked To Hins Cheung Shows

Four people who recently attended concerts of local pop star Hins Cheung have come down with Covid-19.

The organiser of the week-long show, Emperor Entertainment Group, said it has been notified by the Centre for Health Protection that the four patients watched performances on different days between November 22 and 29.

Three of them were said to be seated in the same part of the Hong Kong Coliseum – sections 74 and 75 of the yellow gate, while the fourth person had been in an unidentified section of the red gate.

The company said it has notified the relevant parties involved, and all performers as well as supporting staff will be asked to take tests.

Cheung was the first singer to hold a concert at the coliseum since the pandemic began.

Writing in a Facebook post, he said he is very worried and concerned about the infections and wishes the patients a speedy recovery.

Cheung stressed that the concert organiser had adopted a series of stringent anti-epidemic measures, including requiring audiences to keep their masks on at all times, banning all food and drinks and reminding staff and concert-goers to maintain social distancing.
