Canada to ease entry requirements for arrivals from February 28

Vaccinated travellers will not have to take an RT-PCR COVID-19 test to enter Canada and can instead opt for a rapid antigen test from February 28 onwards, officials confirmed on Tuesday. Unvaccinated children aged below 12 will no longer need to quarantine after arriving in Canada. Further, Canadian government's advisory for citizens to avoid non-essential travel abroad will be removed.
