BBC World Service - Newsday, Covid testing for visitors from China

The US has become the latest country to impose Covid testing on visitors from China

Italy, Japan, Taiwan and India also announced mandatory tests, but Australia and UK said there were no new rules for travellers from China

European Union health officials are meeting to decide on a coordinated response after China announced it was easing its foreign travel restrictions next week despite rising Covid cases. The United States, as well as several of China's Asian neighbours, are imposing Covid testing for Chinese visitors.

And according to a new study, information on food packaging that indicates the level of planet-heating gases emitted during production can persuade consumers against carbon-heavy meal options.
