[08:00] The global new crown pneumonia epidemic has been repeated, and the Hong Kong government has imposed a "no-fly order" on nine countries including the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada since the beginning of this year.
The 16-year-old Hong Kong student Huang is currently studying in the UK. His grandfather died of the epidemic in Hong Kong earlier, but due to the flight ban, he missed seeing his relatives for the last time.
The government announced that the ban will be lifted on April 1. He hopes to return to Hong Kong to attend the funeral, but even if he has bought a very small number of flights, he has yet to book a quarantine hotel, which makes him hesitant. He hopes that the authorities will allow those returning to Hong Kong to undergo home quarantine if they meet certain conditions, so as to avoid the pain of booking hotels.
