Hong Kong Government says the country will resume international flights from the United States, Britain and seven other countries as it announced a loosening of some of the world’s toughest Covid-19 restrictions.
Authorities earlier banned flights from nine countries deemed high-risk including the United States, Britain, France and India.
Lam says Hong Kong will lift flight bans for the nine countries from April 1.
She says the epidemic situations in those countries are not worse than Hong Kong’s, and most arrivals did not have serious symptoms.
