Hong Kong officials were on Saturday trying to track down 50 people who never returned to a city hotel after it was placed under quarantine when a Mexican guest tested positive for swine flu. The city was put on its highest health alert after the 25-year-old man was found to be carrying the A(H1N1) virus on Friday, the first confirmed case of swine flu in Asia. The government made the extraordinary move of quarantining around 300 guests and staff at the four-star Metropark hotel for seven days. But Thomas Tsang, controller of the Centre for Health Protection, said officials were still trying to trace 50 guests who may have left the hotel before it was isolated and have not returned. Tsang added that seven more people had been tested on suspicion of contracting swine flu since the confirmed case. <img alt="" src="/imagedata/2009/may/hkflu.jpg" border="1" />
