Hong Kong health authorities have confirmed four coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases in the city as of midnight today.

A government press release said the Centre for Health Protection confirmed three imported cases, from Pakistan, India, and the United States. The three imported cases did not have any symptoms.

The lone local case, a 29-year-old male who lives in Lamma Island, is linked to previously confirmed cases.

The report comes as Hong Kong eased social distancing measures anew Friday, with tour groups of up to 30 members allowed. Weddings and conferences may also gather up to 50 people under the new anti-epidemic guidelines.

Friday’s confirmed infections brings Hong Kong’s cumulative COVID-19 case total to 5,258.
