BEIJING - China's central authorities have loosened restrictions on attendance at entertainment venues in areas facing a low risk of COVID-19 spread.
Local authorities in low-risk areas now have the autonomy to decide on attendance cap based on local COVID-19 conditions, according to a circular issued by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism.
The circular noted that COVID-19 prevention should be made part of the routine work of these venues.
China has reported no locally transmitted COVID-19 cases since mid-February, and currently has no medium- and high-risk areas for COVID-19.
