Over the past decade, physical fitness in Hong Kong has seen notable improvements. However, according to a recent government survey, more than half of the city’s population still falls short of achieving adequate exercise, with many residents grappling with obesity.

The government of Hong Kong announced that Hongkongers can finally remove their face masks when going out. The mask mandate that lasted nearly 1,000 days has been lifted. It ends the mask-wearing requirement indoors, outdoors, and on public transport. The mandate has been a global relic, and Hong Kong was one of the last places to enforce it, with violators facing hefty fines.
