HK 107 cases 51 recovered 2 deaths, number of new cases declining

UK 164 cases, 8 recovered 2 deaths, number of new cases accelerating

A brief visit to HK airport for a flight transfer looks the least of the concerns.
You trust data from that country?

More than most. International health authorities have been there for a while and have complimented them on the "social distancing" regime. Unfortunately I can't see it being implemented in other countries.

Edit
Just to amplify on my response. HK has closed schools and universities since the middle of January, people have been encouraged to work from home; public sports facilities and museums have been shut; and they have been told to avoid large gatherings. They are particularly sensitive since the SARS epidemic killed a number of people in 2003.

HK society is finally shut down and total national control is restored...
