Hong Kong increases measures to contain spread of Wuhan coronavirus

Authorities in Hong Kong have stepped up measures to prevent the spread of Wuhan coronavirus. Major tourist attractions and public facilities including museums and libraries are closed until further notice. Most of the city's civil servants are being asked to work from home until at least February 2. Residents of Hubei province, of which Wuhan is the capital, are also being denied entry into Hong Kong, as are people who visited Hubei in the past 14 days, unless they are Hong Kong residents.
