Hong Kong Will Keep Reopening Unless New Variant Emerges, Lo Says

Hong Kong will keep its push to reopen to the world unless a dangerous new virus variant emerges. The financial hub has an obligation to protect mainland China from major COVID-19 outbreaks. Lo has been a high-profile voice in the government defending ongoing Covid measures. He has at times been publicly at odds with other key health figures. Daily infections in Hong Kong are hovering around 4,000, down from a peak of more than 10,00 in early September. Hongkong is slowly unwinding some of its toughest pandemic rules. It is an effort to show its return as a global financial center.
