The US may place restrictions on travelers from China, as officials fear rampant spread of the virus in the East Asian country in recent weeks could have led to the formation of a new, dangerous, Covid strain.
Arrivals may be required to test upon arrival in the US, and face other barriers to entry. China has reportedly suffered an explosion of Covid cases in recent weeks after abruptly ending its draconian 'zero-Covid policy'.
Restrictions on Chinese citizens exiting the country have also been lifted. Previously, residents had to prove they had an important reason, like set business dealings, to exit the nation. Now, they can leave for tourism purposes. Around 75 flights arrived in the US from Beijing alone between December 26 and 28.
