Those that come here legally only, of course.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Biden administration is taking the first steps toward requiring nearly all foreign visitors to the U.S. to be vaccinated for the coronavirus, a White House official said Wednesday.

The requirement would come as part of the administration’s phased approach to easing travel restrictions for foreign citizens to the country. No timeline has yet been determined, as interagency working groups study how and when to safely move toward resuming normal travel. Eventually all foreign citizens entering the country, with some limited exceptions, are expected to need to be vaccinated against COVID-19 to enter the U.S.

The official spoke on the condition of anonymity to preview the policy under development.

The Biden administration has kept in place travel restrictions that have severely curtailed international trips to the U.S., citing the spread of the delta variant of the virus. Under the rules, non-U.S. residents who have been to China, the European Schengen area, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Brazil, South Africa and India in the prior 14 days are prohibited from entering the U.S.

With the exception of the 200k illegal immigrants who are crossing in from the southern border every month.

This will be applied equally, for certain.

Except those at the border who Biden will continue to ignore as super spreader events.

It will turn into literally the definition of hypocrisy! We will require LEGAL entrants into the country to be vaccinated; however, illegal entrants are NOT required to prove vaccination! In addition, there literally IS A ONE SHOT vaccination that border agents could easily hit these folks with when they exit the holding area.

The hypocrisy is astoundingly blatant, yet NO ONE in the media, nor any of our more liberal posters will acknowledge the absurdity that a VISITOR from a first-world country such as the UK will have to show proof of vaccination while invited INVADERS (they don't plan on returning to their home country) from third-world countries can just freely flow into the US by the thousands carrying with them any number of diseases.

At MINIMUM, if you are going to force proof of vaccination for visitors from Europe then you should force vaccination on ALL illegal immigrants that enter the country, right?

(FTR, I'm not in favor of mandating vaccine passports for foreign visitors. But if you are going to do so then it should be applied equally)

Equal application of the law is such a white, colonialist, xenophobic concept that we need to eliminate from our society.

So the fact that vaccinated people can still carry the virus, spread it just as fast as unvaccinated, and can still get sick just doesn't matter at all? A negative test makes much more sense. Mandating the vaccines anywhere makes no sense, it's nothing but posturing.

I can't even wrap my mind around requiring the vaccine for legal visitors while at the same time allowing illegal trespassers who actually have the virus to not only stream in but spread them out across the country. Blatantly taking the country down from the inside
