The Government says it will
downgrade its swine flu alert
level from the highest, to the
lowest level later this month.
The alert has been set at the
highest 'emergency' response
level since last May.
But the
Under-secretary for Health,
Gabriel Leung, said this will
be changed to an 'alert' level
-- which is the lowest in the
Government's three-tiered
alert system -- on May the
24th.
He said authorities will
only reconsider the move if
the World Health Organisation
makes a special announcement
on the flu pandemic at its meeting next Monday.
