About 18,000 Hong Kong students plan to study in mainland China this year for the September semester, including 3,000 freshmen who are in urgent need of registration.
Many students are in a dilemma because they can't get the "Health Station" quota in Shenzhen and cannot afford sky-high air tickets...
The efficiency of the Hong Kong SAR government can be described as vigorous and resolute!
In early July, plans to increase the number of health stations will immediately increase to 2,000.
In order to optimize the reservation system of Health Station, a lottery system will be launched within a week.
A meeting was held to discuss "helping Hong Kong students go north", which was implemented in less than a week.

Special Arrangements for Hong Kong Students to Enter the Mainland
The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government announced on the 23rd the facilitation measures to assist Hong Kong students from mainland colleges and universities to enter the mainland.
Hong Kong students have been included in the humanistic care channel and can be exempted from making an appointment to enter the mainland. The relevant departments will also increase the number of places to go to Shenzhen or Zhuhai.
In addition, flights between Hong Kong and mainland cities will also increase, and Hong Kong students can have priority in booking tickets.
If they fail to report in time, mainland institutions will take flexible measures to retain students' admission qualifications and make arrangements for online learning.
Students who need to apply for the Humanities Care Channel to enter the Mainland can fill in the electronic form online and submit it on or before this Friday (August 26).

Entry quarantine may be further relaxed to "0+7"
After the Hong Kong SAR government relaxed the entry quarantine arrangement to "3+4", many infectious disease experts believe that Hong Kong can be further relaxed to "0+7".
That is, people entering the country only need to be under medical observation at home for 7 days, and do not need to be quarantined in hotels.
However, experts said that three conditions need to be met before the implementation of "0+7":
01
Promote the fourth phase of the vaccine pass as soon as possible. Now there are 1.2 million people who have received the second dose and have not received the third dose. It is necessary to take the third dose as a basic requirement.
02
The study downgraded vaccine passports to young children under 12.
03
There are 100,000 people who have been certified by doctors that they are not suitable for injections, and other vaccine platforms can be introduced to encourage these people to get injections.
He Bailiang, director of the Center for Infection and Infectious Diseases at the University of Hong Kong, analyzed that:
First of all, the current global epidemic has declined, and 90% of countries and regions have lower confirmed data than Hong Kong.
And most of the people entering Hong Kong are almost all from low-risk countries and regions.
Second, since the official implementation of the "3+4" quarantine policy, the daily import of confirmed cases has only accounted for 0.8% of the total confirmed data.
Coupled with the "red and yellow codes" combined with effective monitoring, the risk of promoting the implementation of "0+7" is not high.
03
Entering Hong Kong via Shenzhen Bay Port
The number of places has increased to 1,500
Previously, the "Easy Entry Scheme" launched for non-Hong Kong residents was limited to 2,000 places per day, and those who met the conditions could enter Hong Kong without quarantine!
The SAR Government announced on the 24th that the quota of the "Easy Access Scheme" will be increased from now on. The specific arrangements are as follows:
QUESTIONS

Although, quarantine-free customs clearance between Hong Kong and the mainland cannot be achieved overnight.
However, it can be felt that the Hong Kong SAR government has promoted the super-efficient implementation of the work under limited conditions. I believe that the real customs clearance will be just around the corner!
