Hong Kong has reported three more imported cases of Covid-19, bring the total number of infections to 1,105.

Two of the patients returned from Pakistan, while the other was from the UK. They are aged between 15 and 47.

The Centre for Health Protection says all of them developed symptoms like fever, cough or loss or smell and taste.

The person who returned from UK, a 26-year-old female, had developed some symptoms during mid-March, but had no signs when she arrived here.

Meanwhile, health officials say they are still trying to contact four households at Luk Chuen House in Sha Tin's Lek Yuen Estate, to collect their saliva samples for testing.

They’ve appealed to these residents to come forward with the samples as soon as possible, after at least seven residents from the same building recently came down with the coronavirus.
