TAIPEI (Reuters): Taiwan will ease its Covid-19 restrictions from next week though some will remain in place, the government said on Friday (July 23), with rapidly falling case numbers giving authorities confidence to further lower the alert level.

Taiwan implemented restrictions on gatherings, including closing entertainment venues and limiting restaurants to take-out service, in mid-May following a spike in domestic cases after months of no or few cases apart from imported ones.
