This figure illustrates four indicators that reflected changes in population behavior during the COVID-19 pandemic in Hong Kong. Monthly total domestic railway service users were reported by the Mass Transit Railway (MTR) Corporation of Hong Kong, the sole railway provider in Hong Kong. The data represents the monthly total number of passengers. Data on retail sales and unemployment were extracted from the Hong Kong Monthly Digest of Statistics provided by the Census and Statistics Department of the Hong Kong SAR government. Retail sales represents the monthly total retail sales in Hong Kong across all retail outlets, and unemployment represents the total number of unemployed residents in Hong Kong across all industries. The number of visits on food delivering services were extracted from SimilarWeb and the data shows the total number of online visits to Food Panda and Deliveroo, the two major food delivering service providers in Hong Kong. All data were taken as on May 18, 2020.
