Hong Kong is back in business as the city-state drops its mask mandate and prepares for an influx of tourists

 
Hong Kong is dropping its COVID mask mandate after nearly 1,000 days.

It’s a big move for the city, which is now bracing for an influx of tourists and business.

Hong Kong is one of the last places on the planet to require face masks across its city.

It was among those who followed China’s COVID strategy, which has been described as “draconian” by some human rights organisations.

High risk places, like hospitals will have the choice over whether staff and visitors need to wear masks.

The Chief Executive John Lee says it’s the best time to make the decision. #trending #featured
