nc tse, you definitely need some antibiotic ointment. Just curious, any West Nile disease in HK?
Lvrunner c-hing, there has not been any case of West Nile virus infection in HK. Of the mosquito-borne diseases prevalent in the area, it is Dengue of the highest concern, considering its high incidence in SE Asia and the occurrence of some cases in Macao as well. In fact there are imported cases of Dengue from Macao this year. Malaria has also been limited to importation only. JE is also of concern since it's also prevalent in China and Japan. But unlike US, where West Nile really stirred up quite a lot of precautions (and M&M too).
