China says most people with Covid will now be able to quarantine at home rather than in state facilities in a major easing of its zero-Covid policy.
Those with mild or no symptoms can now stay at home and self-report results.
The reforms come just a week after civil protests against pandemic controls erupted across the nation.
The country has also scrapped PCR test requirements for most public venues except hospitals and schools.
It’s the strongest sign yet that China is moving away from its strict zero-Covid policy and looking to “live with the virus”, as is the case elsewhere in the world. This comes as the country is seeing its biggest wave of infections – over 30,000 each day
