White House confirmed children under 18 are exempt from new vaccine requirements as are people with some medical issues
U.S. President Joe Biden on Monday signed an order imposing new vaccine requirements for most foreign national air travellers and lifting severe travel restrictions on China, India and much of Europe effective Nov. 8, the White House said.
“It is in the interests of the United States to move away from the country-by-country restrictions previously applied during the COVID-19 pandemic and to adopt an air travel policy that relies primarily on vaccination to advance the safe resumption of international air travel to the United States,” Biden’s proclamation says.
The Biden administration also detailed requirements airlines must follow to confirm foreign travellers have been vaccinated before boarding U.S.-bound flights.
