A tightened testing window will be part of the administration’s attempt to curb the spread of the virus ahead of another holiday travel period.


President Joe Biden will soon announce tighter Covid restrictions for people flying into the United States, including requiring a negative Covid test just one day prior to travel, as the world races to confront the new Omicron variant.

Three White House officials confirmed that a tightened testing window, first reported by The Washington Post, is coming. One official said Biden himself will soon announce the new requirements, ahead of another busy holiday travel period looming in mere weeks.

In addition, the officials acknowledged that additional quarantine measures are under consideration but said there are no current plans to implement any.

The CDC said it is working to modify the current global testing order for travel as more data comes in on the Omicron variant, and recommends all passengers should still get a viral test 3-5 days following travel. Unvaccinated travelers should quarantine upon arrival, the CDC said.

have no desire to fly. This will hurt the left more than the right I feel. All the lefties I know bemoan not being able to go to Europe or Canada etc during covid restrictions. Now fully vaxxed and boosted they have to get another test?

But there have been indications that the variant may have originated in Europe, raising questions about whether the U.S. might again shut down flights from Europe, mere weeks after they had been lifted.

I hope the airlines enjoy the huge c@ck they allowed into their anuses when they bent over for the vaccine mandates, because they are about to get a bigger dryer one real soon.

You're welcome.
Good, then explain to me your concept of how the 5th affects this whole travel thing. How does this apply?

rumors of regs coming tomorrow. but the border is still wide open. will the illegals coming in and being flown to FLA (& I am sure like Obama other States- How do you think we got Portland being so commie backwards?) in the middle of the night require testing?

name a country that has wide open borders much less during a pandemic.

Exactly what they want.

This is in NO WAY about our safety. Otherwise it would have been enacted a loooooong time ago. Almost two years into this and they suddenly discover "we need travel bans to stop the spread". F*ck off.

And we choose Key West over other Island vacations just so we wouldn't have to deal with vaccine mandates..

Right. At least the countries that went full draconian shut down their borders.

This would suck for me as I already have flights in January to Key West.

I guess I will just lose my money.

Just fake it. This shite is easy. The airlines don't want this; the TSA is a bunch of lazy workers who don't care. Get a good fake.

Again, the airline industry will have a F2F with Joe and he will cave immediately.

If its not shot down by a court beforehand.

Have a flight in week and a half... If this goes into effect they better allow at home tests.

Even if you took the jab? I am going to Taos on Christmas day, Disney for Mardi Gras and then the Masters. That is a lot of testing for a family of four.



Yep.

Joke is on the idiots who got the jab thinking that would be the end of it and they could go back to normal.

Internal movement controls are a feature of police states.


If we permit this, it will become the rule. And we will lose the right to travel. They will restrict our movements for whatever arbitrary reason they come up with.

They will apply it to election season, holidays.

You will need to prove the need to travel.
