Abstract

The article reports on the Covid zero-tolerance policy in Hong Kong with tighter rules and border restrictions following an omicron outbreak despite implementation of quarantines and contract tracing. The restrictions include social distancing, 14-days quarantine for all visitors and ban of flights from high-risk destinations. The economic damage caused by Covid and the low probability to alter the Covid-zero strategy in Hong Kong given the surge in infection are discussed.
