Hong Kong reports 1347 COVID cases as healthcare system overwhelmed

Hong Kong reported 1,347 new daily COVID-19 infections on Sunday, down from the previous day's record, but the spread, with 2,000 more suspected cases, threatens the city's overstretched healthcare system, authorities said. The surge in coronavirus cases, the biggest test yet for Hong Kong's 'dynamic zero-COVID' strategy, comes a day after the government said China would help the city with testing, treatment and quarantine capacity.
