Paris, giật đồ rực rỡ

Under the new rules, any restaurant with more than 20 seats – including work canteens, bakery chains, fast-food and sushi outlets – will have to provide reusable, washable cups, plates, dishes and cutlery for customers eating in. French environmental groups called it a “complete paradigm shift” for the sector.

China resumes international travel: Which countries are introducing new COVID restrictions?

Countries are imposing new COVID-19 measures on travellers coming from China as international travel resumes.

So far Japan, India, Italy, Malaysia, South Korea, Spain, Taiwan and the USA have announced stepped up rules on travellers from China in response to rising cases.

Japan says it will require a negative COVID-19 test upon arrival for travellers from China, with those testing positive having to undergo a week in quarantine. Tokyo also plans to limit airlines increasing flights to China.

Malaysia put in place additional tracking and surveillance measures. The Philippines is also considering imposing tests.

On Friday, South Korea announced that from 2 January, on-arrival PCR tests will be introduced for people coming from China. From 5 January, the country will additionally require a negative test result within 48 hours or a rapid antigen test taken within 24 hours before departure. Restrictions are also being placed on short-term visas for Chinese nationals.

US government officials are ramping up controls, too, citing concerns about the "lack of transparent data" coming from Beijing. Beginning on 5 January, all air passengers two years old and older will require a negative result from a test no more than two days before departure from China, Hong Kong or Macao.

In the EU, Italy has ordered COVID-19 antigen swabs and virus sequencing for all travellers coming from China, the health minister said on Wednesday.

The Belgian mayor has also called for COVID checks to be reintroduced on tourists entering from China, while France says it is unnecessary to increase border controls. An EU wide decision was expected on Thursday, however an agreement is yet to be reached.

On Friday, Spain became the second European country to announce COVID restrictions on travellers from China, who will now need to provide a negative test result or proof of vaccination.

The UK, however, has no plans to bring back COVID-19 testing for those coming into the country, a government spokesperson said on Thursday. Australia, too, is making no change to its rules around allowing travellers from China into the country

Why are countries concerned about travellers incoming from China?

Over the past few weeks, China has rapidly been loosening its strict COVID rules amid citizen unrest. The abrupt policy change has reportedly left its health system overwhelmed as the virus spreads largely unchecked.

China, a country of 1.4 billion people, reported three new COVID-related deaths for Tuesday, up from one for Monday. However, these numbers are inconsistent with what funeral parlours are reporting, as well as with the experience of much less populous countries after they re-opened.

"There are mounting concerns in the international community on the ongoing COVID-19 surges in China and the lack of transparent data, including viral genomic sequence data, being reported from the PRC [People's Republic of China]," US officials said on Tuesday.

In Italy, Milan's main airport, Malpensa, had already started testing passengers arriving from Beijing and Shanghai on 26 December, and the results showed almost one in two passengers was infected.

What are the rules for people travelling into China?

China said on Monday it will lift its quarantine requirement for inbound travellers starting from 8 January. It will also resume issuing visas for residents to travel overseas.

This is a major step towards easing curbs on its borders, which have been largely shut since 2020. The rules have gradually been easing in recent weeks to facilitate both domestic and international travel.

Hong Kong also said on Wednesday it will scrap most of its remaining COVID restrictions.

Online searches for flights out of China spiked on Tuesday from extremely low levels, but residents and travel agencies suggested a return to anything like normal would take some months yet, as caution prevails for now.

Paris giựt nước rực rỡ:

Paris art deco public loo worthy of €2 charge
https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...ny-of-2-charge

The Lavatory de la Madeleine, a belle époque jewel that opened in 1905, will cost €2 (£1.80) to use when it reopens on Monday.

It was fitted out in art deco style with the finest materials: varnished mahogany woodwork, stained-glass windows, ornate ceramics, mosaics, brass taps and floor to ceiling tiles and has been listed as a historic building since 2011 when it closed.

The idea of a public lavatory was inspired by those in London introduced in the 1880s. The underground facilities were intended to be not only useful but beautiful and luxurious. Only six such toilets still exist in Paris, one of which is on the Champs-Élysées.

New York, doo-doo rực rỡ:

Fecal bacteria ‘rampant’ on New York sidewalks
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...bacteria-shoes

The study comes as dog ownership in the city has exploded during the pandemic. With it a shortage of dog walkers has materialized as workers grudgingly return to offices.

But with more dogs comes an inevitable increase in fecal production, and city authorities have vowed to crack down on pet owners who fail to correctly bag up with a $250 fine for “failure to remove canine waste”. The law does not apply to a guide dog accompanying any blind person.

The study, released to the Indoor and Built Environment journal, concludes there’s a strong argument for leaving your outside shoes at the door – or risk tracking fecal bacteria around the house.

The warning comes as Venice, where flooding is normally the primary concern, faces unusually low tides that are making it impossible for gondolas, water taxis and ambulances to navigate some of its famous canals.

The warning comes as Venice, where flooding is normally the primary concern, faces unusually low tides that are making it impossible for gondolas, water taxis and ambulances to navigate some of its famous canals.

The problems in Venice are being blamed on a combination of factors – the lack of rain, a high pressure system, a full moon and sea currents.

Bali to ban tourists from renting motorbikes
https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...ing-motorbikes

The Indonesian island of Bali plans to ban tourists from renting motorbikes after a series of incidents in which foreigners have violated traffic rules.

Bali’s governor, Wayan Koster, said that under changes to be imposed this year, foreigners would only be allowed to drive cars rented from travel agents.

Bali drew 6.2 million foreign visitors in 2019, and the island’s economy relies on their spending. But local people’s patience with tourists has been tested by frequent reports of unlawful or disrespectful behaviour, including on the roads.

Paris: chuột bọ rực rỡ

The ratpocalypse: why Paris is awash with vermin
https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...nt-stepping-in

The city’s refuse collectors are on strike, so there’s rubbish everywhere: about 6,000 tonnes of the stuff and rising.

Like most of the country, refuse collectors in Paris and other cities have downed tools to protest at Emmanuel Macron’s hugely controversial pension reform, which would raise retirement ages. In their case, from 57 to 59.

The Parisian pest controller Alexandre Woog says he is receiving 10 times as many calls as usual. “People are worried,” he declared on French television.

Anne Hidalgo, the Socialist mayor of Paris, has declared her “total, complete solidarity” with the strikers and says she can’t requisition workers to deal with the rubbish backlog.
