Six new Covid-19 infections were reported today, Oct
6, including an Indonesian foreign domestic helper previously reported as
having tested preliminary positive and whose case has now been classified as “re-positive.”
Staff at the Health Department said the classification
was based on a set of factors, and not on any record of the patient testing
positive for the coronavirus previously.

L452R strain of the coronavirus.

A 49-year-old man reported having symptoms on the day
of his arrival in Hong Kong, and was tested positive for the L452R strain at
the airport. He was fully vaccinated with Sinovac in Pakistan.
The other passenger is a 34-year-old man who was
asymptomatic and also tested positive for Covid-19 on his arrival test. He is asymptomatic,

The sixth patient is a 50-year-old air crew from
Russia who arrived on Oct 5 via flight F7-H119. He developed symptoms on Sept
30 and received two Sputnik jabs in Russia. His test result for the presence of
variants is pending.
Meanwhile, the 43-year-old Indonesian DH reportedly
tested negative for Covid-19 on Oct 5, but positive the previous day, the 30th day since she arrived in Hong Kong. On Oct 3
her test result was indeterminate so she was sent to the hospital for
observation and further testing.

The helper arrived on Sept 4 from Indonesia via flight
CX2780 and stayed at Silka Tsuen Wan hotel. Her specimen sample taken on
arrival at the airport tested negative, as well as five samples taken from her
during quarantine.
An antibody test conducted on her at the hospital had
a positive result. Records showed she had two jabs of the Sinovac vaccine in
Indonesia on Jul 19 and Aug 16.
“After examining the epidemiological, clinical and
laboratory findings, this case is considered compatible with a re-positive case,”
said a statement from the Centre for Health Department.
Despite this, her employer’s residential block in Heng
Fa Chuen, Chai Wan where the helper moved after quarantine has been put under a
compulsory testing notice, as well as Victoria Park in Causeway Bay, as she had
been there on Oct 1 and 3.
