Swine flu info for travelers to HK?

Wed, 2009-04-29 08:05 — Anonymous

What's the best website where I could find up-to-date information about what's being done in Hong Kong for the Swine flu threat?  I'm asking this as a possible traveler to Hong Kong.  Thanks!

Swine flu info for travelers to Hong Kong

There's a Hong Kong government page with links to all the main information about swine flu in Hong Kong. Or you can jump straight to their daily Update on Swine Influenza Infection in Humans.

You might also take a look at the WHO summary page about swine flu, to check their latest 'Update for Travellers'. eg as I write this, their latest update dated 28th April 2009, says:

WHO does not recommend to restrict international travel. As usual it is considered prudent for people who are ill to delay international travel and for people developing symptoms following international travel to seek medical attention.

I would recommend you to check this site:

Then stop worrying about ridiculous media stories. If the WHO does its job, and we mere mortals remember basic childhood tips like "wash your hands" and "don't sneeze and throw dirty tissues everywhere," then there is no need for this to even be news.
