The New Coronary Pneumonia epidemic continues to erupt. Recently, the number of departures passing through the Shenzhen Bay Port has shown an upward trend. This afternoon (13th), dozens of people queued at the port to enter the mainland. Hong Kong people who are planning to go to the Mainland said that they had hoped that the government would return to work in the Mainland after the government launched the "health code". However, the local epidemic situation has resumed. Other members of the public criticized that the Hong Kong Government has not completely closed the customs. "Someone transported the virus (virus) back to Hong Kong, and it went back one machine at a time." He continued that according to relatives and friends, the outbreak in Shenzhen’s Shajing was more stable than that in Hong Kong.

According to data from the Immigration Department, a total of 8,913 people traveled through the Shenzhen Bay Port during the week of the epidemic (from 5 to 11 this month), an increase of 80% from the previous week (June 28 to July 4).

The reporter saw at the Shenzhen Bay Port in the afternoon that people with luggage came in and out from time to time, including cross-border students, and some took off their masks to eat; in the travel inspection building, dozens of people queued to leave. A taxi driver in the New Territories revealed that the passengers going to the Shenzhen Bay Port have indeed been on the rise recently. They generally travel with their families and carry luggage.

At the bus stop of the B3X line in the center of Tuen Mun towards the Shenzhen Bay Port, there were once more than a dozen people queuing up, many people brought their suitcases. Among them, Mr. Xiao, a Hong Kong person, said that he had been working between China and Hong Kong before the epidemic, but since After compulsory quarantine measures, he never went to the Mainland. He said that he originally hoped that the government would return to work in the Mainland after the government launched the "health code", but frankly said: "Wait for the health code, Shenzhen has something to do."

Mr. Xiao believes that the current epidemic situation in the two places is similar, but Hong Kong people's awareness of epidemic prevention has been relaxed, and many people go out to eat. He also criticized that the Hong Kong government's mandatory quarantine measures have loopholes, allowing home quarantine, rather than staying in all quarantine facilities, worrying that quarantines will spread the virus to their families. "Housing enterprises will then take the virus to the community." He said that he went to the mainland Will try to reduce going out as much as possible, I believe that I will stay for at least one month.

He criticized the Hong Kong government for failing to complete the customs clearance. "Someone transported drugs (viruses) back to Hong Kong, one machine at a time." He said bluntly: "(The epidemic situation) is good, but never good!"
