haha nightmare? try to enjoy your time dude, free staying in 3 stars hotel (isnt it) for 7 days, who doesnt want it? this is a rare opportunity for you or for all of us who want to stay in a hotel... you are so lucky, i tell you. lol
what u mean by lucky..they didn't hv to lock up people for seven days! result h1n1 can shows in 3 days but they quarantined people for 7 days! imagine some people who staying there for business or holiday and ended in metro park...so i dun think u can say this "opportunity" and 'luck'
It is better be safe than risky. Though unwilling, I would accept the arrangment and let time/ test to tell I am clean.
Thank you for sticking out all guests being quarantined and thank you all staff who have worked in the hotel/resorts to take care of the guests. Now that this episode is almost over, let's continue our guard and fight against this virus.
Being a Hongkonger, I am sorry for the people in quarantine. Since we have known little about the virus and the fear of commmunity outbreak, we have no choice but impose a quarantine on the hotel. It seems the HK government is so strict but I am sure no one what to see a large outbreak.
This quarenteen is unnecesary, OMS already raised to 5, inminent spread, HK is not listening.
The mortality levels are low, and those who died in Mexico did because the medical services are not good.
Such paranoic measures will lead to frictions wich Mexican and American goverments are reacting to. A plane was sent to pick up mistreated and discriminated citizens in China. Fligths have been cancelled, imports too (eating pork wont make you sick), and now injustified quarenteens. Whats next?
Forgot to mention. Did they even bother to supply you guys with enough Alcohol or Beer to survive the 7 days of Hell in there? Might as well have a party while your there.
Im sure alcohol will help kill time. Sure does when theres not much to do. Also kills germs.
Not surprised how the HK govt has overreacted in this case. Its FLU...o no..its gonara kill everyone on Earth. The end is near. Imagine it was Ebola and you guys got stuck together in a hotel for 7 days.
I'll be happy to be quarantined in dubai's 6/7 star hotels LOL. Free of Charge of course.
Thank you for your precious 7 days of your life, it means possibly preventing you from become an unintentional murderer by spreading a virus not yet fully known to the medical scientists, and also means saving your life too. Next virus pandemic may be far more deadly for the entire world; we are very lucky this time.
I am a HKer living in NY. I deeply appreciate your effot to update your situation with us. With the experience of undergoing SARS and the current H1N1 pandemic in NY, I can say that the action by HK government is necessary. Again, thanks for you patience and cooperation. Keep updating!! 4 days to go!! You are the Man!
i am sorry you feel that way. But their reaction although overactive may be understandable especially as they have experienced SARS just 8 short years ago. Imagine going through that all again its like rretraumatization. The persons involved that are infected are undergoing treatment as it is. But SERIOUSLY people getting paid on youtube... u gave me a good chuckle.
Haha. It's better to quarantine 300 people than the other 7 million people in Hong Kong. Don't complain too much now because next time you may really catch a deadly virus. Hope you have better luck next time.
Hi Leslie, it must be very hard on you and the rest of the quarantined guests. But think of it as a humanitarian act. Remember it is only till Saturday, right?
So please be strong and continue to communicate with the outside world by blogging!
hi there, don't be upset. maybe the food is not in your taste and maybe no entertainment for you at all in the hotel. try go downstair to look for some helps. i called the hospital authority, and they said there is a list downstairs for different world famous fast food, this might help your homesick as well. i hope this information helps. on the other hand, as a citizen in hk, i apologize for any inconvenience caused to you guys. hong kong must be a healthy place. SARS 2003 was scary...
hong kong experience hard time during sars period.we understand we cannot let the disease spead. We experience a whole building with people sick of sars.
we understand we have to control everythings at the most early stage.
i do feel sorry for all the people in the metro building.
A lot of people did not understand why Hong Kong government was over reacting for this issue. However, if you have ever experience HK SARS back in like 5-7 years ago, you will understand why!
HK govt is very sensitive to any kind of societal problems since the fail administration of the Tsang government and the LegCo election last year. The number of participants in this year's July first rally is undoubtedly nerve-wracking for some top govt officials.
"Hong Kong goverment is overacting as a political meaning"
300 lives lost after SARS and survivors are still living with serious sequela. Uninfected people lived with constant fear during that period. Why do you people are that heartless??
Besides, what if H5N1 and H1N1 cross over and mutate?????
Just two days ago, a bird was found to have H1N1.
I feel sorry for the people who are being trapped in the hotel. But at the end, it's good for them, good for their friend, good for their own country too.
But I agree the government should provide better services for them.
I feel sorry about your experience. HK went through SARS and avian flu and given the uncertainty about the virulence of the virus that time that's the best thing the HK govt could have done.
cheer up and enjoy the harbour view from your room!
Should I translate that for you? "Good job HK gov.". Yea that's our Hong Kong kids, thinking that if they speak something bad in Chinese no one will know that . Shame on you.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I told my friend not to fly there during the beginning of the flu outbreak because I suspected that they would be prone to overreacting and acting out of fear instead of science. Whether it is wearing face masks, banning pork, or holding a quarantine over an entire hotel, Hong Kong and its Chinese government just don't know how to correctly deal with a problem like this, so they're mis-firing in all directions.
It is understandable that you dislike Hong Kong government's counter-epidemic measures, but please allow me to add that she hasn't banned pork and has never intended to do so.
you'll never how dense the population is in HK, people are much easier to get affected than anywhere else in the world. The government is doing the safest thing to keep everyone safe, if the governemnt never did this and the flu spreads out, all you people will be blaming why no isolation or this kinda stuff is done. I think no one shud question the governemnt under this kind of situation.
Never question the government? Spoken like a communist... Or Singaporean.
And don't condescend. This isn't SARS and your emotional response about HK being crowded just supports the idea that HK doesn't know what it is doing. I have been to HK several times, and even if I share a bus with someone who has the flu, chances are that I won't be infected. Knowledge and personal responsibility go a long way.
Hardly, modern day communists are anarchists who OPPOSE all forms of government. In fact communists value individual rights over those of community. BTW Singapore is one of the most painfully capitalist Asian countries conceivable, just ask their elderly and foreign workers about their rights. Try a dictionary before throwing around words which seem to make your point.
I think shanghai government should be put the blame on. Shanghai airport is the original souce destination next to Mexico. If shanghai do a good job on screening the possible mexician passengers on china oriental airline flight MU505 1/5 then you guys would not be quarantined for 7 days and Hongkong would not be high alert for 7 days. We are so sorry you guys suffer at Metro Partview hotel which operated by china travel service, which also operated the SARS hotel 'metroplitian hotel" in 2003
Sorry for the poor feeling caused to you. our government is not the sympathetic. i can feel that the quarantine life is not enjoyable, especially being treated like this.
hope you forgive our government, and treat it as a special trip in your life. most importantly, hope you have a good healthy body!
yeah right, and guess what, the uk gov also quarantined hk-ers during sars period when little was known about the disease. i bet they just gave chips, chips and more chips to those who got quarantined back then, oh maybe they got given salt and vinegar
Can't speak for all Hongkongers, but I feel sorry for your unfortunate "hotel arrest". Hope the government can at least improve the food menu and provide laundry services in next few days. Actually they'd better review who should be quarantined, based on floors and when you guys checked in, but I think the government is a bit nervous this time because the SARS experience is too traumatic.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Thanks for uploading this video. I'm a local HongKonger.
That's why we hate the government. Those officials are some high ranked bipedal apes. These people always suck . Doing nothing, fxxking things up, getting super high paid.
The Chief of the government just wants to show off his ability to fight the little flu. So he orders to lock people up for quarantine. It's just a little flu for god's sake. What a freak show!!
Folks, next time when you book hotel in hongkong, dont book any hotels operated by "china travel service". 2003 they operated metropolitian hotel with deadly disease SARS, this time 'harbour seaview hotel" with H1N1. You think it is coincidence ? I really dont think so. Go try 'china travel service' group hotel next time or not? its your choice. 'To be or not to be' that is the question.
well....sorry to hear you being quarantined in the hotel ..for 7 days...
I do understand why the Government did so on this hotel because Hong Kong is such a damn high population density place that virus could spread considerably fast...
However.. they should provide a god damn laundry service in-house.......
and better food of course...
man, you guys are tourists... not prisoner :(
Why don't you guys go to the resort....at least you can enjoy to live in country side..:)
I feel sorry for you. Not because of the hotel - it's nice enough I think - but because of the fact that you have to be quarantined for 7 days. This is not justified. H1N1 is not SARS but just some over-hyped virus which practically is just as potent as any other flu virus flying around (IF treated early enough). While the HK govt's response is shift, it's clear that nobody else in the hotel has been infected and people should be freed on Mon/Tues (if no new cases arise)
Of course it's gonna be take away food, LOL. Do you think the hotel is in any condition to prepare food in? It's a quarantine area for God's sake. Even if you get food from Robuchon, by the time it gets to the hotel, it's still gonna be takeaway food. :)
Why the thumb down? It is, it's a block away from Agave and The Bridge. It's where everyone takes their hookers to for a shag, that's why you can get the rooms for half a day.
hey~Lezcarr~! I am so sorry to hear that u need to social distancing and stay in the room, I knew that sucks, but do hope u have a gd time after that~!
SERIOUSLY~! EVERYONE WHO'S SICK PLZ CONSULT A DOCTOR IN ANY HOSPITAL ASAP! DON'T SPREAD THE DISEASE EVERYWHERE JUST THAT U THINK U ARE NOT THAT SERIOUS AND NO ONE WILL GET AFFECTED~!THE PPL WHO ARE IN THE HOTEL! THEY ARE BEING AFFECTED FROM UR SELFISHNESS!
dude hope you're fine in there. get those ppl to fetch u quality takeaway or something. there's some good brit food/ kebabs at the back of ur hotel, and a nice indian restaurant opposite to the front of ur hotel. so shouldn't be a big problem at all.
hello, there is a thread just opened at the forum hkgolden(one of the most famous forum in HK) talking about your case. If you can read Chinese, go there and have a look.
We are discussing that whether lunch boxes are delicious; most of us don't think so.
stop calling people names you JERK; it's like a good brain being stuck on an emotionally dumb "idiot" "shmuck" body; you 'sound' like you have a good brain but you speech with gutter mud mouth you pea head.
As you know HK government must quarantine all possible passengers who might carry the H1N1 disease virus before it spread away like in 2003 the mainland chinese spreaded out the SARS throughout the world. I understand that your present situation are a bit odd but we have no other choice. If we dont stop this, the H1N1 would kill thousand of lifes like SARS in 2003. I hope you would take your time watching the Hongkong TV channels and get to know Hongkong and news going on about H1N1,THANKS
Do u think it is a must for a normal guy to be quarantined for 7 days? Even we had SARS before, it do not mean we need to isolate others again!! Especially, they are all healthy people.
That shows your ignorance. Have you ever heard of such thing as an incubation period? It takes around three days for anyone infected with the swine flu to show any physical symptoms. It's only been less than two. So don't be such an uneducated shmuck.
The incubation period might be even longer, with most cases in the US ranging from 2 to 7 days according to most reports, so the Chinese government had made the right call.
Oh, just found out the head of the WHO is from Hong Kong as well, so she must know her stuff.
Dear British friend, I regret that you have such a situation being quarantined at the hotel room. I guess u understand that as we face the terrible disease H1N1 from Shanghai flight MU505. Our government have no other choice but quarantine all possible disease souce of H1N1. As we face SARS in 2003, it not only killed our economy, 300 lifes and also hurt the reputation of HK. I guess you should blame Shanghai govt, which they should have put appropiate action in stopping the flight to HK.
I think you can request a transfer (request a transfer. Pfff, now it really sounds like you're serving time) over to the Lady MacLehose Holiday Village, I think the conditions are way better over there.

Sorry for the poor feeling caused to you. our government is not the sympathetic. i can feel that the quarantine life is not enjoyable, especially being treated like this.
hope you forgive our government, and treat it as a special trip in your life. most importantly, hope you have a good healthy body!

yeah right, and guess what, the uk gov also quarantined hk-ers during sars period when little was known about the disease. i bet they just gave chips, chips and more chips to those who got quarantined back then, oh maybe they got given salt and vinegar

Can't speak for all Hongkongers, but I feel sorry for your unfortunate "hotel arrest". Hope the government can at least improve the food menu and provide laundry services in next few days. Actually they'd better review who should be quarantined, based on floors and when you guys checked in, but I think the government is a bit nervous this time because the SARS experience is too traumatic.

Thanks for uploading this video. I'm a local HongKonger.
That's why we hate the government. Those officials are some high ranked bipedal apes. These people always suck . Doing nothing, fxxking things up, getting super high paid.
The Chief of the government just wants to show off his ability to fight the little flu. So he orders to lock people up for quarantine. It's just a little flu for god's sake. What a freak show!!

Folks, next time when you book hotel in hongkong, dont book any hotels operated by "china travel service". 2003 they operated metropolitian hotel with deadly disease SARS, this time 'harbour seaview hotel" with H1N1. You think it is coincidence ? I really dont think so. Go try 'china travel service' group hotel next time or not? its your choice. 'To be or not to be' that is the question.

well....sorry to hear you being quarantined in the hotel ..for 7 days...
I do understand why the Government did so on this hotel because Hong Kong is such a damn high population density place that virus could spread considerably fast...
However.. they should provide a god damn laundry service in-house.......
and better food of course...
man, you guys are tourists... not prisoner :(
Why don't you guys go to the resort....at least you can enjoy to live in country side..:)

The HK government should contract some laundry service to do free laundries for you guys as well! And do that fast!
clubad2000 2 years ago
I feel sorry for you. Not because of the hotel - it's nice enough I think - but because of the fact that you have to be quarantined for 7 days. This is not justified. H1N1 is not SARS but just some over-hyped virus which practically is just as potent as any other flu virus flying around (IF treated early enough). While the HK govt's response is shift, it's clear that nobody else in the hotel has been infected and people should be freed on Mon/Tues (if no new cases arise)

Eating 7-days of take away food is so sad.

Of course it's gonna be take away food, LOL. Do you think the hotel is in any condition to prepare food in? It's a quarantine area for God's sake. Even if you get food from Robuchon, by the time it gets to the hotel, it's still gonna be takeaway food. :)

Why the thumb down? It is, it's a block away from Agave and The Bridge. It's where everyone takes their hookers to for a shag, that's why you can get the rooms for half a day.

As you know HK government must quarantine all possible passengers who might carry the H1N1 disease virus before it spread away like in 2003 the mainland chinese spreaded out the SARS throughout the world. I understand that your present situation are a bit odd but we have no other choice. If we dont stop this, the H1N1 would kill thousand of lifes like SARS in 2003. I hope you would take your time watching the Hongkong TV channels and get to know Hongkong and news going on about H1N1,THANKS
henrywong63 2 years ago
Do u think it is a must for a normal guy to be quarantined for 7 days? Even we had SARS before, it do not mean we need to isolate others again!! Especially, they are all healthy people.
What do u feel if u are quarantined for 7 days?
arsenalweb 2 years ago
That shows your ignorance. Have you ever heard of such thing as an incubation period? It takes around three days for anyone infected with the swine flu to show any physical symptoms. It's only been less than two. So don't be such an uneducated shmuck.
JohnWoo 2 years ago
The incubation period might be even longer, with most cases in the US ranging from 2 to 7 days according to most reports, so the Chinese government had made the right call.
Oh, just found out the head of the WHO is from Hong Kong as well, so she must know her stuff.

Dear British friend, I regret that you have such a situation being quarantined at the hotel room. I guess u understand that as we face the terrible disease H1N1 from Shanghai flight MU505. Our government have no other choice but quarantine all possible disease souce of H1N1. As we face SARS in 2003, it not only killed our economy, 300 lifes and also hurt the reputation of HK. I guess you should blame Shanghai govt, which they should have put appropiate action in stopping the flight to HK.
