Hong Kong: Hong Kong’s government on Thursday (May 5) lifted covid-19 restrictions on gathering at beaches.
On Thursday, authorities reopened beaches and allowed people to exercise outdoors without masks for the first time in months.
Restaurants are also allowed to seat up to eight customers per table — up from four previously — and masks will no longer be required during outdoor exercise, a change that’s important to organizers of group sporting events.
Bars and nightclubs remain closed but are set to reopen soon.
