Hong Kong could be easing up on flight bans, class suspensions and quarantine periods for travellers a month earlier than planned, the city’s leader Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor said on March 17, 2022. She conceded the public’s tolerance for harsh anti-epidemic measures was “fading”. Lam’s comments came as the city recorded 21,650 new cases, inching the total number of reported infections in the city closer to 1 million.
