Coronavirus in China: The increasing cases of coronavirus in China have destroyed the lives of people. High-speed rail services between Hong Kong and China have resumed after three years, despite a massive wave of infections across the country. Let us inform you that a day ago the officials told us that about 60 thousand people have died due to Corona.

 

Happiness among people to return home

Despite the transition, some travelers have expressed excitement and relief about being able to return home in time for the coming Lunar New Year. Let us tell you that due to the Corona epidemic, the rail service between Hong Kong and China was stopped for the last three years.

 

The passengers were not able to return to their homes under any circumstances. Passenger Mang Li, 33, one of the dozens of people passing through border checks at Hong Kong's West Kowloon Station before boarding trains, said the decision to introduce the high-speed rail was convenient and could get home sooner.

 

Increased concern about Corona

Let us tell you that there has been an increase in travel ahead of the holiday celebrations starting on 21 January. Crores of people are returning home to big and small cities and rural areas. Due to this, concern has also increased about more infections in the country. Following global criticism of coronavirus data, Saturday's death toll in China showed a huge increase compared to previous figures.

 

The move was welcomed by the World Health Organisation, although the body has also asked for more detailed data to be made available. But the figure is still short of predictions by international health experts, who have said more than a million deaths have been reported in China this year.

 

Tickets for all trains sold

Cheung Chee-keung, head of cross-boundary operations, said there were about 1,400 passengers at West Kowloon station as of 10 am. At the same time, a witness said that tickets for almost all trains were sold out on Sunday, and people were seen thronging the station. An official at the station said that the train service is currently for short journeys. At the same time, Hong Kong's Transport Minister Lam Sai-hung said he could not confirm when long-distance travel would resume.
