Hong Kong has kept its number of coronavirus cases comparatively low. But now, after weeks of citywide action, fears are growing of a potential second wave of cases -- imported from outside the territory.
Hong Kong After months on the frontline of the coronavirus pandemic, Hong Kong increasingly looks like a model for how to handle it.
Despite having numerous transport links with mainland China, where the first cases were detected, and a mobile population working on either side of the border, Hong Kong has kept its number of cases comparatively low. To date, Hong Kong, which is home to more than 7 million people, has fewer than 170 cases and four deaths, while other countries and cities have reported hundreds, even thousands, of infections.
