If you leave the USA, you have to show a negative test to return, regardless of vaccine status.

There are thousands that have paid for flights and stays internationally that require tests. A family of four would need 8 negative tests to make it home from vacation.

Whether you believe it or not, there are employers trying to set up requirements for checking negative tests, but they can’t execute it because of the shortage. By the time they can, the variant of the month will have already burned through their area.

Then there are the folks buying them up because of the public knowledge of shortage, “just in case.” This is what created the Great Toilet Paper Shortage of 2020.
