Hong Kong health authorities appealed to overseas students not to fly back if they are already feeling sick, as several young returnees have been sent to hospitals after testing positive for the coronavirus, RTHK reports. They were taken to public hospitals, with preliminary results showing all three have all tested positive for the virus. If they are advised by their school, or their parents want them to come back to Hong Kong, I think they can. A man with a chronic condition, who hasn't been outside Hong Kong recently, is also infected. The new cases took the total number of confirmed infections in the SAR to 162.
