OTTAWA — The national public health agency says it's"closely monitoring" the COVID-19 situation in China, but gives no indication it's planning to follow the U.S. by requiring that travellers from China be tested for the virus.

It says there's already a"level two" notice for all countries, including China, meaning that travellers should practise enhanced health precautions, including the use of personal protective equipment, delaying travel and avoiding high-risk activities. It says"China has recently lifted many of its COVID-19 restrictions," which may increase case numbers in the country, and unvaccinated people should continue to avoid unnecessary travel.
