America Will be Only Western Country to Enforce This Policy on Unvaccinated in 2023

Although many countries have opened their borders for unvaccinated tourists, the United States is NOT one of them.

The TSA has extended the rule that unvaccinated individuals arriving by airplane cannot enter the U.S. until at least January 8 next year.

It directly contradicts CDC’s guidance in treating unvaccinated and vaccinated the same.

In fact, the United States will be the only Western country to retain the discriminatory policy heading into 2023.

Not even Justin Trudeau’s Canada restricts unvaccinated non-citizens from entering anymore.

As Spectrum News 1 noted:

It’s a big day for residents living along the Canadian border and New Yorkers in general as Canada has officially removed all remaining COVID-19 entry restrictions.

This includes testing, quarantine and isolation requirements.

Fully vaccinated international travelers have been allowed to enter Canada since September of last year and, while unvaccinated citizens and permanent residents have been permitted to enter the country, a 14-day self-quarantine was mandatory.

The country will also no longer randomly test travelers at airports.

“It’s seems like this is a great time,” Rosanna Berardi, Berardi Immigration Law, said. “I think that people on both sides of the border are super happy. Especially in the border cities in Canada Where they really have taken a big economic hit because of the lack of Americans traveling there due to these tight restrictions.”

Restrictions are still in place for travelers entering the U.S. and there hasn’t been any sign of them ending. This is despite outcry from citizens and local lawmakers calling for the United States to follow Canada’s lead.

Daily Mail reported:

Travelers flying into the United States will still need proof of Covid vaccination in 2023 — making the US the only country in the West to stick by the failing policy.

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has extended the rule, which only applies to non-US citizens, until at least January 8 next year to ‘limit the risk of Covid-19, including variants of the virus’.

But there has been a growing acceptance among experts that Covid vaccines – while highly effective at preventing severe illness – do not stop infections very well.

Dr Rochelle Walensky, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), admitted earlier this year they shots ‘can’t prevent transmission anymore’.

Yet since November 2021, non-US citizens entering America have had to provide proof of Covid vaccination.

The CDC defines fully vaccinated as having had an accepted single-dose vaccine, or both doses of an accepted two-dose series, at least two weeks ago. A booster dose is not needed.

Most major Western nations such as the UK, France and Germany, have already dropped these types of recommendations.

The countries still requiring Covid vaccination to enter are: China, Angola, Libya, Ghana, Cameroon, Liberia, Yemen, Indonesia, Pakistan, Azerbaijan and Turkmenistan.

The TSA announcement said it was renewing the policy to ‘limit the risk that Covid-19… is introduced, transmitted, and spread into and throughout the United States’.

As shown by the graph above, introducing proof of vaccination for travelers on November 8, 2021 did not stem the influx of Covid cases from the Omicron variant during winter last year
