News of relief for travelers coming to China, there will be no Covid test from Wednesday

China, which is battling the Corona epidemic, has made a big decision for passengers coming from abroad. According to China's Foreign Ministry, now travelers will not need to undergo a Covid test to enter the country. It will be implemented from Wednesday i.e. 6 September.

Giving information, the Chinese Foreign Ministry said that 'from August 30, passengers coming to the country will no longer need antigen tests for Covid (COVID-19 Testing in China).' Explain that this is a major decision towards ending the various restrictions imposed in China since the beginning of 2020. Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin announced this during a briefing on Monday.

The people of China had to face difficulties for a long time to end the harsh coronavirus restrictions and lockdown that had been in place for years. In December last year, China completely ended its zero Covid policy after huge public protests.

According to China's COVID restriction rules, travelers traveling to China from other countries were required to undergo a coronavirus test and spend weeks in government-designated hotels. The world's largest economy had gone into slow motion due to Corona restrictions, which led to an increase in unemployment and crime cases.

China's zero COVID policy was at its peak during 2020. People were restricted from leaving their homes and the aim was to isolate each and every corona-infected person. This policy saw a decrease in the number of Covid cases in China, but in some areas, people were staying indoors for months.
