Everyone except the People’s Republic Of China have had enough of COVID-19 restrictions and mandates. Even Hong Kong, technically part of China but still possessing a degree of autonomy under China’s “one country, two systems” structure, is looking to ease travel restrictions and quarantine requirements.
Hong Kong’s health chief has said the government is “actively considering” scrapping hotel quarantine for overseas arrivals, sounding a cautiously optimistic note on stabilising daily Covid-19 caseloads.
Secretary for Health Lo Chung-mau told a radio programme on Saturday that recent infection figures and sewage samples showed encouraging signs, warning however that a previous long weekend might mean fewer people got tested, while there was a higher risk of transmission from family gatherings.
The federal government is considering turning the page on pandemic-era restrictions by ending the COVID-19 vaccination mandate at the border and scrapping random testing requirements, the Star has learned.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his cabinet have yet to make a final decision, but several sources confirmed ministers will soon weigh in on a move that could also spell the end of the unpopular ArriveCAN app.
Slowly but surely, the world outside of China is moving on from COVID-19. China is getting left behind in pandemic purgatory.

I can see Trudeau making this "announcement" because his numbers suck and in light of the recent Conservative election..... I can also see him keeping all of the restrictions in the next few weeks because last week he said that he might have to bring the mandates/restrictions back if we don't get our boosters....... he wants 80-85-90%.....soo......not really a believer......sorry......
I'm glad to hear the idiots in charge here in Canada have decided it's time to start backing away from this insanity. I'm sure this, as well as all their demonic decisions of the past couple of years, is purely politically motivated.
Now when will the United States do away with the "vax" requirement to enter the country (unless, of course, you're entering illegally through the southern border), inquiring minds want to know. 🤔
COVID Travel Restrictions Continue To Fall
