Commuters are the first people returning to Uber as businesses reopen, Andrew Macdonald, senior vice president of mobility and business operations, told NPR in an interview. In Hong Kong, Macdonald said Uber is seeing more rides than before the coronavirus that are related to "domestic tourism" destinations, like hiking trails. Macdonald said it is "within right to reject passengers who refuse to wear masks" and that Uber will kick off passengers or drivers who repeatedly do not adhere to the policy.
