The aging of Hong Kong accelerated a bit.
Most, if not all, of the emigration, is Under 55 years cohort.
Since 2019 estimated has declined by 3.77% (based on Hong Kong census & number of people leaving until 11 Aug 2021)

But a net 110,000 citizens have left through the airport since June last year. About 34,300 have applied for the UK visa, but of course that's not the whole story for either country. https://t.co/wYqCh5L2t1
