      China to scrap PCR test requirement for inbound travellers

      Travelers wearing face masks walk through the international arrivals area at Beijing Capital International Airport in Beijing. Beiijing: Travellers entering China will no longer need to provide a negative PCR test result starting from Saturday, in another easing of China’s “zero-COVID” policies. Travelers can instead show a negative antigen test result taken within 48 hours before boarding, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning told reporters Tuesday.

But after the rules hammered the economy and sparked protests, the government suddenly rolled back its onerous measures in December and made a major step to drop its…

      Joe Biden, 80 not out, aims to win and finish second term at 86

      Americans face the “exhausting” prospect of a Biden v Trump rematch in the 2024 US Presidential election after the incumbent President, 80, formally launched his bid for a second term. Vice-President Kamala Harris, 58, will again be his running mate. On the Republican side, Donald Trump, 76, remains the frontrunner for the GOP nomination, with polls showing him well ahead of other potential challengers like Florida governor Ron DeSantis. The combined age of the presidential candidates (156 years; 158 by Election Day) will be the highest of any two contestants in US Presidential history, and arguably in world electoral history, a geriatric milestone in a country whose median age is 38. In a three-minute campaign video he released on Tuesday,…

      Just under 15 minutes into his BA flight from Birmingham to Malaga, two of pilot Tim Lancaster’s cockpit windows shattered. The pilot was violently torn from his seat and sucked out the window. The 1990 incident occurred at a whopping 17,300 feet high as the plane was travelling over Oxfordshire. The sheer force of the decompression blew the plane’s cockpit window from its hinges but quick thinking from one flight attendant helped to save the pilot’s life. Nigel Ogden was almost knocked to the ground by the door but rushed to grab Lancaster’s legs before he flew out the window. He told the Sydney Morning Herald: “I was just stepping out, with my hand on the door handle, when there was an enormous explosion,…
