No new COVID-19 cases reported

April 24, 2020

The Centre for Health Protection announced that as of 4pm today, no new confirmed COVID-19 cases have been recorded, leaving the number of confirmed cases in Hong Kong at 1,035 so far.

 

The centre again urged the public to maintain an appropriate social distance from other people as far as possible in their daily lives to minimise the risk of infection.

 

People should go out less and avoid social activities such as having meals outside or other gatherings to minimise the risk of coronavirus clusters emerging in the community.

 

Given that the COVID-19 situation remains severe and the number of cases reported around the world continues to rise, members of the public are strongly urged to avoid all non-essential travel outside Hong Kong, as well as maintain strict personal and environmental hygiene at all times.

 

The Hospital Authority today reported that there are 331 patients under isolation and 725 patients have been discharged upon recovery.
