    Cruise ship hantavirus outbreak / Labour Day Golden Week / European Union Day / Down's syndrome care challenges

    On Friday's programme, we first look into the rare, rodent borne illness known as Hantavirus, after a cluster of passengers with the severe respiratory illness aboard a cruise ship in the Atlantic was reported to the WHO.

    After that, we hear from a tourism sector representative on Labour Day Golden Week, as Hong Kong recorded about 1.19 million visitors over the five day period.

    After the break, we chat with the EU Ambassador to Hong Kong and Macau to learn all about Europe Day, a day marked to celebrate peace and unity in the continent.

    And to wrap up the show, a mother whose daughter has Down’s syndrome will share her story and difficulties they encounter, as we look ahead to Mother's Day on Sunday.
