Hong Kong logs 5,564 new Covid-19 cases
Health authorities on Sunday said Hong Kong added 5,564 new Covid cases.  Of the new infections, 385 involved arrivals from outside the SAR.  Five more people who were infected with the coronavirus died.  Meanwhile, Cathay Pacific said flight crew will be given a choice to spare them from being restricted by an amber code on their vaccine pass from Sunday. In an internal memo, the airline said cabin and cockpit crew members can opt to wait for their PCR test results at the airport. If they test negative, they will receive a blue vaccine pass code.  But crew members who receive the blue code are required to conduct daily PCR tests for four days.  Arrivals are currently allowed to leave the airport right after having their saliva samples taken for PCR tests, but they will receive an amber code that bans them from entering some venues, such as restaurants, for three days. ______________________________
