Pilot cleared of virus, tests positive again

A 43-year-old pilot who returned to Hong Kong from London last month has been been initially diagnosed to be infected with the new coronavirus.

He had tested negative for the new coronavirus when he returned to Hong Kong and completed the 14-day home quarantine in Tung Chung.

There are fears he may have infected others after consulting doctors at North Lantau Hospital, and the Princess Margaret Hospital, where he sought care for an injury to the finger. -Photo: for illustration only.
