Hong Kong authorities have said they would allow some children testing positive for Covid-19 to remain at home, rather than being separated from their parents and hospitalised, after a public outcry from families across the city.
Hong Kong's Hospital Authority told Reuters that not all Covid-positive children would be required to go to hospital.
“In general, confirmed children in stable condition can rest at home. If there is medical need for hospitalisation, they will be arranged to receive treatment and care in the paediatric isolation facilities in public hospitals,” the authority said in a statement.
