Five Miss Hong Kong contestants have caught Covid-19, resulting in next Sunday’s semi-final being postponed till further notice.
Broadcaster TVB, which hosts the yearly competition, said in a notice on Tuesday that it has arranged for the remaining 14 contestants to undergo PCR tests.
It also said it has put on hold remaining promotions and rehearsals in order to protect the contestants and other cast and crew.
The broadcaster added that the semi-final will be rescheduled till further notice.
It said this was to give enough time for those who contracted the virus to recover.
