On July 1st, Hong Kong celebrated the 25th anniversary of the reunification with the motherland and the inaugural ceremony of the sixth-term government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. Prior to that, Hybribio Group fully undertook the task of nucleic acid testing for the participants from the Mainland and Hong Kong and firmly built a security barrier against the epidemic for the celebration, intending to prevent and control the spread of COVID-19 epidemic, under the command and leadership of the Hong Kong Food and Environmental Hygiene Department.

The celebration of the 25th anniversary of Hong Kong's return to the motherland was momentous, which placed great importance on the prevention and control of the COVID-19 epidemic. Hybribio Group took the testing task very seriously and set up a special working group quickly for the "25th Anniversary" by making a comprehensive plan and deploying more than 60 employees to strengthen the testing team. The Hybribio team held several meetings to discuss and formulate the testing plan, including clarifying the screening details, optimizing the execution process and staff scheduling, and putting forward high requirements on the timeliness, accuracy and service level of the testing task. All these work were conducted under the guidance of the Hong Kong Food and Health Department and the Liaison Office of the Central People's Government in Hong Kong.

From June 25 to July 1, the Hybribio Hong Kong testing team operated at a 24/7 mode, setting up five testing sites in Hung Hom Stadium, Tsim Sha Tsui, Wan Chai and Kowloon Bay respectively. We were responsible for multiple rounds of nucleic acid collection and testing for mainland and Hong Kong attendees, police officers, media reporters and performers. " To get ready for any change, apart from equipping the corresponding manpower, we also prepared 5 logistics vehicles to enhance the transportation efficiency and ensure the report results are issued within 3.5 hours after sampling, which effectively guarantees all congress work are carried out normally and efficiently." Colleagues at Hong Kong Hybribio said that at least 1,000 related conference workers need to be tested every day.

The time from sampling to issuance of test report was shortened to 3.5 hours through strict cooperation in front-end sampling, logistics and transportation to laboratory testing, providing testing guarantee for the smooth implementation of the preparatory work for the 25th anniversary of Hong Kong's return to the motherland with "high standard and strict requirements". Hybribio Hong Kong team were highly recognized by the leaders of Hong Kong Food and Health Department and Hong Kong Liaison Office of the Central People's Government in the HKSAR, for its serious rigorous work attitude and accurate efficient testing service.

 “As we are in the same boat under the Lion Rock.” The touching melody of ‘Fighting the epidemic together under the Lion Rock’ was playing in the streets and lanes of Hong Kong. Only by uniting together to win the battle against the epidemic can we guard the health of all families in Hong Kong, which is also the spiritual pursuit of Hybribio Hong Kong team, who firmly stand in the front line of the epidemic.

At the beginning of this year, when the fifth wave of the epidemic broke out in Hong Kong, Hybribio responded quickly to the calling of the Hong Kong SAR Government and allocated 168 testing elites, the Victory air-inflated laboratory and hundreds of testing instruments to support Hong Kong when the resources for nucleic acid testing in Hong Kong were scarcest and the community was under the greatest pressure facing the epidemic. In the first half of the year, Hybribio completed over 4 million COVID-19 nucleic acid tests in Hong Kong, playing an active role in the critical moment of epidemic prevention and control. The pursuit of the nation is the pursuit of Hybribio, which is the conviction of Hybribio. Hybribio is duty-bound to do its best to protect the life and health of our compatriots in Hong Kong and to contribute to the prosperity and stable development of Hong Kong.
