Hong Kong health authorities on Wednesday confirmed the territory's third human case of the deadly H7N9 bird flu, the city's first of 2014. A 65-year-old man has been infected with the virus and is in a critical condition, Hong Kong Centre for Health Protection controller Leung Ting-hung told reporters at a press conference late Wednesday. Leung also said that the patient may have "passed through" the entrance of a government building complex containing a wet market in Hong Kong. An 80-year-old man died on Boxing Day after he was infected with H7N9, Hong Kong's first death from the virus.
