Second Dog Tests Positive For Coronavirus

A second dog has tested positive for coronavirus in Hong Kong days after the first to contract the disease died. 

A German shepherd living in the Pok Fu Lam area on Hong Kong Island was sent to quarantine along with another mixed-breed dog from the same residence.

It happened on Thursday after their owner was confirmed as being infected, the Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department (AFCD) said in a statement. 

The mixed breed dog did not test positive for the virus and neither dog were showing any symptoms.
