6 February 2020 - In view of the current situation with the novel coronavirus, the HKTDC will closely monitor the situation and work closely with the official organiser, IMG for NYFW to ensure the health and safety of designers, buyers, press and show participants in Fashion Hong Kong promotions at the event. 

Meanwhile, please find the health and safety measures that will be conducted at Fashion Hong Kong show in New York (6 Feb) as follows –

1. Maintain a thorough and ongoing cleaning service in partnership with the venue service provider including sanitation of surfaces, removal of waste before and after each show in all public and private areas, as well as the close of each night.
    
2. Hand sanitizer stations will be provided throughout the venue, including registration counter and entrance etc. 

While IMG will follow guidelines from Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and take appropriate measures stringently, the HKTDC will also reference the latest advice from Hong Kong’s Centre for Healthy Protection (CHP) to implement health protection measures.
