Hong Kong on Saturday reported 5,111 new coronavirus infections, including 494 imported cases.

Eighteen patients with Covid have died.

The daily infection tally has been hovering around 5,000 in recent days, as the government gradually relaxes social distancing rules.

The Centre for Health Protection urged people who have yet to receive vaccination, especially the elderly, chronic patients, children and those with low immunity, to get the jabs as soon as possible to reduce the risk of falling seriously ill and death should they get infected
