Air Canada Crew detained in Hong Kong due to positive covid test.

A four person AC (cargo) Crew has been detained in Hong Kong, possibly for up to 21 days. One member of the crew tested positive on arrival. This crew member was double vaccinated and had a negative PCR test prior to departure. The other three tested negative. Diplomatic efforts are underway to release the crew. AC has discontinued direct service to HK, instead opting for a stopover in Seoul. The cynic in me wonders if the test was truly positive or if there is some geopolitical games afoot - re:the two Michaels and the Huawei extradition trail.
