Health officials reported eight new Covid-19 cases in Hong Kong on Saturday, the first time in over a week that the figure has been in single-digits. Seven of them were local, one from an unknown source - a 42-year-old carpenter who lives in Caroline Hill Court in Causeway Bay.
The other local patients live in Tai Hang Road in Causeway Bay, Hing Wah Mansions in Mid Levels, the Ping Tin Estate in Lam Tin, and the Wah Sum Estate in Fan Ling. Two other local cases had no recorded address and the one imported case came from the Philippines.
The Centre for Health Protection said the tally of confirmed Covid infections now stood at 11,371.
There have been 297 new infections over the past 14 days. Two hundred and thirty were locally acquired, 50 from an unknown source.
