The Center for Health Protection announced yesterday that the 55-year-old male patient was a member of the Consulate General of the Russian Federation in Hong Kong. He returned to Hong Kong from Russia via Finland on October 5 and returned to the community without isolation.
The patient is asymptomatic and has been vaccinated with two doses of Kexing vaccine in Hong Kong and carries a high amount of virus.
According to the information provided by the patient, he stayed at home after arriving in Hong Kong.
As the cases found today initially showed that the mutant virus strains were involved, the risk of infection in the relevant areas was higher after assessment, so restrictions and detection announcements were made on the relevant areas.
The government announced at 7pm last night that people restricted to the designated "restricted area" in Sai Wan Ho, that is, people in Block 1, Grand Promenade, 38 Tai Hong Street, Sai Wan Ho, must stay at their premises and undergo compulsory testing.
