U.S. weighs new COVID restrictions on travelers from China
CBSN
The Biden administration is weighing the possibility of imposing new requirements on arriving travelers from China, officials say, citing "mounting concerns" about the country's ongoing COVID-19 surge and "the lack of transparent data" from Chinese officials.
The move comes as the Chinese government has begun to ease travel restrictions that were imposed years ago early during the COVID-19 pandemic, despite a renewed wave of cases since it relaxed its "zero COVID" policy.
Starting this weekend, Japan says it plans to begin requiring a negative COVID-19 test for visitors from China. Malaysia has also "announced new tracking and surveillance measures," U.S. officials said.
