Please don't spread incorrect info and create unnecessary worry for those who have planned and booked their trip to HK.

Yep it's flu season now in South China areas including HK & Macau, but if you've done preparation then it'd be ok. My advices are, wash your hands with soap more often, avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth before you wash your hands with soap, drink more water & have enough sleep to strength your immunity, stay away from coughing people if possible especially in crowded places. If you still scared, have flu vaccine 1 week before your trip.

Those kids died from flu related illness were infected with H1 virus, not H3 nor H5, as per local news. Also, the virus seems to attack young kids rather than healthy adults in this season. 
It's NOT SARS. Please read HK news online for more detailed info.

Sep is still very long time from now, and flu mainly happens in Spring, ie. March - April. If HK have flu season throughout the whole year I think 7millions HK ppl will soon be extinct..
I wonder how well do you know about this news?
FYI i am NOT spreading incorrect rumours or info.

it was reported in the English Newspaper and also hong kong tv station.

also Hong Kong Govt just closed down primary and kindergarten for safety reasons. so i am not spreading incorrect info.

about the H3 virus it was reported and i just pass on the info. i doubt i can make up stories on hong kong if i hadnt been there 2 wks back or if the info from the newspapers are not correct.

Hi Paraoptical,

Today's still raining, no, should be pouring with some occasional thunderstorm. According to weather forecast, we will only have sunny day from Tuesday. Tornado no la... Just Typhoon je, but already gone few days ago la.

Nothing special wor, don't worry.. But we have broken the record of highest rainfall in year 1889, haha... This month record the highest monthly rainfall since HK had official weather record.  icon_rolleyes.gif
