I'm in Hong Kong with my wife and son. We are fine. Schools have been closed since January. Even though the Hong Kong boss (Carrie Lam) is a Beijing puppet, she was forced to take action quickly under pressure from most people and especially the medical profession. She closed most of the border entries, closed schools and public workers were made to work from home. In three months, with over 7 million population tightly packed together, we have had only 4 deaths. Up until recently, we had just over a 100 cases, but with the 2nd wave of HongKongers returning from Europe, there are more than a 1000. But as soon as they get to the airport, they are tested and then quarantined. Without being told, 99 per cent of the people wear face masks and everyone washes hands scrupulously. They are compliant. Most remember SARS in 2003 and learned that lesson the hard way.
Feel sorry for my 2 nursing sisters in the UK. Incompetence on a huge scale happening there.
