Hong Kong doctor reunites with wife and new baby after work with coronavirus 'dirty team.'
Now, with the city’s containment efforts ramped up, Wong has left the"dirty team" and reunited with his wife and their new addition, something he said made him feel"slightly better."Four people have died from coronavirus in Hong Kong as of Saturday, with the number of infections topping 1,000, but the semi-autonomous city has managed to ride out the first wave of the epidemic relatively unscathed — something Wong credits its residents for.
Richard Engel explores the lasting impact of the Coronavirus pandemic in"On Assignment: Pandemic" which airs tonight at 9 p.m. ET, only on MSNBC. During the first wave, Wong said the city had to deal with an influx of patients from mainland China, where the virus originated, but with the epidemic now global, he is concerned about imported cases.
To tackle the spike in new cases, the Hong Kong government has banned all tourist arrivals and urged residents to continue maintaining social distancing measures.
