Hong Kong to close primary schools, may vaccinate children
Hong Kong | Hong Kong is reimposing some of its strictest virus curbs since the pandemic began, putting fresh strain on the financial hub’s economy as authorities double down on their controversial COVID-19 zero policy.
Kindergartens and primary schools will close again, chief executive Carrie Lam announced on Tuesday, while air passengers from “high-risk” countries are set to be banned from transiting through Hong Kong International Airport, according to people familiar with the matter.
