        Good for them. China needs to sort out their disaster and leave HK alone for once.

        Be rational! Your demonstration and strike will only increase your exposure to the virus.

        Be rational. Leaving the borders open only increases the risk of community outbreak of Wuhan #CoronavirusOutbreak in Hong Kong. Medics are risking their career to urge the govnt. We put well-being & health of HK ppl on top priority. & what about you?

        Why wouldn't they shut it? I mean do they really want the virus everywhere? You can't treat it and take care of the situation if it continues to spread like wild fire. Those workers are being put to risk.

        Shutting the border is not the most important concern of medical workers, saving people is.

        But the point is that shutting the borders is the most effective measure to curb the Wuhan #CoronavirusOutbreak = saving ppl who are living in Hong Kong

        If North Korea or Japan threatened Hong Kong they would run to China immediately for help. Chinese not sticking together. No unity. Horrible

        We hv tight resources even before 2019-nCov, & it would only be more stretched because of the outbreak. Halting potential coronavirus carriers is important to the medics’ work condition & our hospital network. Shut border = deal w/ the root causehttp://www.ejinsight.com/20190215-its-not-just-new-homes-hk-also-needs-more-hospital-beds/ …

        Closing border is the most effective way for prevention. This picture was shoted during annual pandemic flu and shows how shortages HK's medical resources are always in. HK can't afford tons of sudden cases from mainland but HK govt chooses to ignore this.pic.twitter.com/VlWmGoWSdL
