U.S. CDC Lifts COVID-19 Testing Requirements for Travelers From China

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on Friday lifted mandatory COVID-19 test requirements for travelers from China.

The decision takes effect for flights departing to the United States from the Chinese mainland, Hong Kong, Macau, and designated airports at or after 3:00 p.m. Eastern Time Friday, according to an announcement on the CDC website.

This means that starting Friday afternoon, air passengers will no longer need to get tested and show a negative COVID-19 test result, or show documentation of recovery from COVID-19, prior to boarding a flight to the United States from those places, according to the CDC.
