🌊 Key to shorter quarantine

Good morning.

Today’s bonus content at the end of High Tide is a tad too NSFW for our usual news briefings but also too absurd to not share (TW fully-clothed depictions of lewd acts). Keep scrolling if you dare!

A suggestion to require vaccinations for foreign domestic workers was poorly received and revoked. The criticism made by the public over discriminative policymaking caused officials to withdraw this proposal.

The government will recognise 10 COVID-19 vaccines to permit returning HK residents a shorter quarantine period. Those returning from overseas will be allowed to self-isolate for less time – 14 days for medium/high-risk countries, seven days for low-risk countries.

HK has purchased the rights to broadcast the 2020 Tokyo games for the first time. The rights will be licensed to five local TV stations for people to watch for free.

Schools will be allowed to open up for half-day and in-person classes with all students from 24 May. Currently, schools have been permitting two-thirds of students to be physically present in classes.
