The Biden administration’s latest COVID-19 rule went into effect Monday and requires all international travelers to test negative for the CCP virus within 24 hours of departure to the United States regardless of vaccination status.
“All air passengers 2 years or older with a flight departing to the US from a foreign country at or after 12:01am EST (5:01am GMT) on December 6, 2021, are required show a negative COVID-19 viral test result taken no more than 1 day before travel, or documentation of having recovered from COVID-19 in the past 90 days, before they board their flight,” says the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) website.
