The fifteen boys and six girls from the residential child care center in Causeway Bay came down with fever, cough and sore throat since August 9, a spokesman from the city's Center for Health Protection said, adding that all the 21 patients, aged between six to 15, are now stable and no hospitalization is needed.

The Center for Health Protection is still investigating the outbreak, the spokesman said.

Hong Kong reported 345 new cases of A(H1N1) virus infection Wednesday, bringing the total to 7,906 since the virus was first detected here at the end of May.
