[JAherbert]

update

18-2-2020 Legionnaires Disease Outbreak two more cases, that is 22 cases in total, with 16 residing near Ping Shek/Choi Hung. Still have 6 specimens from patients residing around Choi Hung matched with Choi Hung MTR cooling towers specimens, no change.

The two new cases also reside close to Choi Hung MTR station.

Yes, CHP is only reporting 14 cases, because 1) they are ignoring the two nearby cases in the "other" district; and 2) ignoring the six other cases are dotted all over town, apparently no connection with Choi Hung reported so far.
