Hong Kong Filmart has been postponed from March to August due to the coronavirus outbreak. Details:
Hong Kong Filmart, Asia's largest film and television content market, has been postponed to August due to the global coronavirus outbreak, organizer the Hong Kong Trade Development Council said Thursday.
Earlier this week, Beijing officials had begun to voice cautious optimism that the coronavirus epidemic was beginning to be contained. But on Wednesday, confirmed infections spiked by 15,152 new cases because of a change in diagnostic criteria. The death toll also climbed by a record 254 deaths to 1,367 in total.
Since news of the coronavirus epidemic in China hit in late January, more than 80 percent of the Hong Kong population has requested the closing of the border between China and Hong Kong to contain the outbreak. A strike by medical professionals took place last week to demand stemming the flow of travelers from China to Hong Kong. Thus far, however, the Hong Kong government has refused to stop the influx, only closing some lesser-used arrival ports.
