A statement from the Government of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region said three passengers on PAL's flight PR300 from Manila tested positive for the virus.The decision was confirmed by the airline in a statement issued Monday.
However, the Philippine air carrier said all three passengers—two Filipinos and one Chinese national—presented negative COVID-19 test results when they boarded the flight. It also said that PAL"consistently [complies] with industry and regulatory safety protocols in the Philippines and abroad." "We assure the flying public that strict safety measures are in place to protect our passengers throughout the journey on all our flights," it added.
PAL also said it would continue its passenger flights from Hong Kong to Manila. Its cargo flights will not be affected by the ban, it said.
Hongkong is OK to hurt the feelings of the Philippines as their priority is the safety of the Hongkongers, unlike the DDS govt which prioritized China's feelings over the safety of the Filipinos.
