Air India has been banned from flying to Hong Kong for two weeks for carrying too many passengers infected with Covid-19. The government acted after linking 11 imported cases on an Air India flight from Delhi on August 14 to poor pre-flight testing for the virus.
Officials invoked an emergency public health regulation to penalize an airline for this offence for the first time.
