"That’s what the Secretary was referring to; ensuring that all U.S. travelers will be able to easily meet any anticipated foreign country entry requirements." https://www.axios.com/biden-covid-vaccine-passport-mayorkas-travel-546fec90-3b6d-4d84-afff-64c1514ad295.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they decided to would be Court/Lawsuits, we are are on downside Pandemic closing on Herd Immunity/Virus Burnout. Shoot Govt has admitted only half of the CDC & NIH even received the Vaccine. Not to mention 30% Congress, 30+ percent US Military, 40% Marines, 30-40 percent of Medical Field and Parents of 60% Kids said have no plans to get the Vaccine. With low cases, Country Opening will be even less likely to get it... Except my 4 young Grand Daughters my whole Family is Fully Vaccinated, so no issue I plan on Cruising gratefully w/o Mask this Fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3kidsncats Posted May 28, 2021 #9 Share Posted May 28, 2021 They absolutely should have a system in place for international travelers to be able to easily provide verified proof of vaccination at international borders, beyond a card that can be fabricated. Not sure why this would be a problem for anyone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
