Abstract: As a global city, Hong Kong directly connects more than 120 cities worldwide and transfers nearly 20 million passengers each year. The current COVID-19 pandemic has put the major transport hub in Asia under severe threat of potential imported cases. This Featured Graphic visualizes inbound confirmed COVID-19 cases to Hong Kong globally from January to June 2020, which could greatly help to assess risks from imported cases and improve air transport control policy for mitigating the global spread of COVID-19.
