At least two people were airlifted to hospital in the past two days after falling ill while hiking in Hong Kong, with a middle-aged man dying and a 17-year-old Singaporean girl discharged.
The teenager was flown to Ruttonjee Hospital in Wan Chai on Saturday morning after vomiting and experiencing chills while hiking on Lion Rock, a 495-metre (1,624-foot) peak.
In a separate incident, a 66-year-old man suddenly felt unwell and collapsed while hiking with his nephew in Plover Cove Country Park in Tai Po, police said on Sunday.
