Health officials on Friday reported three imported Covid-19 cases.

The three men, aged between 45 and 53, did not develop any symptoms. They had all been vaccinated, with two doses of either BioNTech or AstraZeneca vaccines.

One of them is a 53-year-old who visited India in late-August and returned to the SAR on September 15. He tested positive during his quarantine at the Kerry Hotel Hong Kong in Hung Hom.

Separately, the Centre for Health Protection said it had been notified that two people who left Hong Kong in the past two months had been confirmed with Covid-19 after they reached the United States and the United Kingdom.

Meanwhile, health authorities ordered people who stayed at Tower 2 of Phase 2A of Le Prestige in Lohas Park and Tung Shung Hing Building in To Kwa Wan to get tested on Saturday, in relation to infections found earlier.
