https://www.cnn.com/2021/09/20/politics/biden-administration-international-travel-restrictions/index.html (CNN)The United States plans to ease travel restrictions on all fully vaccinated foreign visitors starting in November, the White House said Monday, relaxing a patchwork of bans that had begun to cause fury in Europe and replacing them with more uniform requirements for inbound international air passengers. The new rules will require all foreign nationals arriving in the United States to show proof of being fully vaccinated, the White House Covid-19 response coordinator Jeff Zients said. He said the new rules would take effect in early November, a timeline that will give agencies and airlines "time to prepare."

Fully vaccinated foreign nationals and American citizens returning to the United States from abroad will be required to take a pre-departure Covid-19 test within three days of their flight, and show proof of a negative result before boarding. Unvaccinated Americans returning to the US will be "subject to stricter testing requirements," Zients said, including a test within one day of departure and an additional test when they return. Fully vaccinated passengers will not be subject to any quarantine mandates upon arrival in the US. The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention plans to issue a contact tracing order requiring airlines to collect information from US-bound travelers, including a phone number and email address, to alert travelers of potential exposure. Airlines will be required to keep contact tracing information for 30 days. "This will enable CDC and state and local public health officials to follow up with inbound travelers and those around them if someone has potentially been exposed to Covid-19 and other pathogens," Zients said, adding that this new requirement will be used more broadly going forward to help protect "against any future public health threats." The new guidance applies to all international travel. Zients said the White House would defer to the CDC on the definition of "fully vaccinated," including on which vaccines qualify. The AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine is not yet approved for emergency use in the US, but is widely used in Europe and the rest of the world. The development is a first step toward repairing one of the several emerging rifts between the Biden administration and officials in Europe. A spat has emerged between the United States and France over a deal to equip Australia with nuclear-powered submarines, depriving France of a contract to provide conventional subs. European leaders also found consultations with the Biden team over Afghanistan to be lacking. It will also be greeted favorably by the travel industry, which had been lobbying the federal government to lift some of the rules preventing international tourism. Airlines, hotels and hospitality groups had all voiced support for allowing vaccinated tourists from abroad back into the United States. Zients maintained that the administration is "not taking any measures off the table" when asked about the possibility of vaccine mandates for Americans traveling domestically. And he said there were no updates to existing rules on land border crossings with Canada and Mexico. Welcome news to many US travel bans were first imposed in the earliest days of the pandemic when then-President Donald Trump limited travel from China in January 2020. That step failed to prevent the virus from reaching the United States, but additional countries were added to the list as health officials pressed the White House to limit entry from places where case rates were high. Trump added countries in the Schengen Zone -- which encompasses 26 states in Europe, including France, Germany and Italy -- along with Ireland and the United Kingdom. Brazil, South Africa and India were added separately. Land borders with Canada and Mexico were also closed. Biden had maintained the strict bans on nonessential travel, even as vaccination rates in Europe ticked upward, citing the unpredictable nature of the pandemic and the emergence of the Delta variant. But the system proved infuriating to European governments, whose countries' citizens have still barred entry to the United States even as those nations brought their case counts down amid successful vaccination campaigns. Countries with higher cases that were not on the list were not subject to the rules. Months of discussion Over the course of the past months, travel restrictions on people wishing to enter the United States had devolved into a major transatlantic rift. European leaders, frustrated at the apparent lack of progress, began taking their gripes public. They said the rules were damaging relations between Europe and the United States. Europe opened its borders to Americans in June, but last month reversed course, removing the United States from a safe list of countries whose citizens are exempt from quarantine or testing requirements. Anger over a lack of reciprocation from the United States partly fueled the decision, European officials familiar with the matter said. Biden entered office vowing to restore frayed alliances and spent much of a trip to Europe in June proclaiming his commitment to transatlantic ties. He announced during that visit a series of task forces meant to examine reopening travel, but months passed with little to show for the effort. Overseen by the White House Covid-19 response team and the National Security Council, the groups include representatives from the CDC along with officials from the Departments of State, Health and Human Services, Homeland Security and Transportation. The American officials were partnered with representatives from the European Union, United Kingdom, Canada and Mexico and have met several times to discuss the reopening situation since the administration announced them at the start of Biden's first foreign trip in June. There have also been multiple smaller group conversations in between those larger meetings to discuss specific issues, like the epidemiological situation, variants, surveillance, and vaccination efforts and plans for changing travel restrictions, a White House official told CNN. But some people familiar with the working groups had questioned their effectiveness, as other countries began to open to Americans with little clarity over whether the US would reciprocate. One source familiar with the discussions described "paralysis among agencies" over next steps. This story has been updated with additional reporting.
Those who have received vaccines listed for emergency use by the World Health Organization, such as the AstraZeneca vaccine, would also be considered fully vaccinated, according to a statement from Thomas Skinner, a C.D.C. spokesman. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/09/20/us/politics/us-travel-ban-coronavirus.html 这一条不是说WHO承认的CDC也觉得可以吗？那中国疫苗不是也可以了？ hykl 发表于 2021-09-21 11:33

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -The United States will re-open to air passengers from China, India, Britain and many other European countries who have received COVID-19 vaccines in early November, the White House said Monday, rolling back tough pandemic-related travel restrictions that started early last year.

中国承认欧盟使用的疫苗吗？不知道政治在这方面是否需要讲究对等
看起来是可以的。。。。。。。
是啊，现在不给护照renew咋办，哎
🛋️ 沙发板凳
原文哪里写中国了？
Very misleading title...
”The new guidance applies to all international travel. Zients said the White House would defer to the CDC on the definition of "fully vaccinated," including on which vaccines qualify.”
主要是 针对欧洲吧
默大妈 跟白登 打了很多电话, 要求美国对欧洲人开放.
中国的话, 谁理会啊, 完全就是和世界隔绝的地方.
白日做梦！
一大早忍不住想骂人
你们这种在国内没有任何亲人联系的 少来在这里瞎bb，惹人烦； 算了，骂你我觉得丢人，就不对你爆粗口了
美国一堆正常人希望中美航行正常恢复，家人可以过来探亲
问题是责任在中国啊!!
欧美之间的旅游 早就正常了啊!!
默大妈经常去美国访问啊
中国的领导人 一个个缩在中国, 不敢到欧洲和美国啊
欧盟也不承认啊
中国疫苗在德国拿不到 通行码
没有通行码 进不了 健身房 和电影院
哈哈哈
欧盟这里 绝大部分人 打的都是 Pfizer 和 M 家的疫苗啊
和美国一模一样啊
欧盟的人去美国 总算自由了!!!
美国人和 欧洲人 之间结婚的很多很多啊!!
不可能 那是梦想
那基本上就是其他国家恢复通行，除了中国
就算承认中国疫苗，也只有需要带娃的老人会来。谁会来美国旅游然后回国隔离14+7+7？为这个消息欢欣鼓舞的可能都家有小娃吧
话说到底有什么克服不了的困难，一定要老人这种时候来美国帮着带娃？
这下中国保持清零的压力更大了。
航班数目保持不变，隔离政策不变，压力还是一样的吧。
还有舆论压力啊
我赶脚不太会。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
晓庆，快来美国玩玩儿
从新加坡转
找人可以办，在中国任何事都是可能的。
现在过来的父母都是准备长期滞留了吧？这要是过来半年，回去再隔离个几周也太辛苦了。
是的 刚接了国内朋友的女儿
Need to vaccinated by Pfizer or Modena. The question now is that whi can get them inside there
国内亲人都不在了？
老人不带娃的，就想跟儿子儿媳女儿女婿生活在一起的，这下更能长期住了
版上因为公婆过来搞到夫妻要离婚的还少吗？因为父母过来搞到焦虑崩溃的还少吗？ 美国一点不替美华的生活和谐考虑。生气了。决定今天不骂法国。
可是打了的不承认，美国承认的疫苗国内打不了啊！
中国谁敢提取消隔离，会被骂成卖国贼，估计没人有这个胆。
况且，也理解国内为了自保，要求14+7隔离
啥都不管就为了跟儿子一起过的上一代不要太多
14加7 总共21天
你要白等展现魄力把你家人关在外面？震碎三关。
那个人脑壳有病，早就屏蔽了，下次回复都不要引用他，实在不想看见他那些故意挑事的垃圾废话。
美国政府需要对美华的婆媳关系考虑？
团聚不急在这一时。反正身边过来的老人都是有娃要带。没见过这种时候来美国游山玩水的。咱见识浅，酱紫
有点够呛。中国不认可美国疫苗，如果美国搞对等的话估计也不会认中国疫苗。如果美国大度一点，可能会认WHO承认的疫苗，这样就包括了中国疫苗
不过这事美国瞎大方也不是没有可能 指望中国发慈悲那就枉费喊她祖国几十年了
没毛病啊，以前要去第三国洗白，没有强烈需求的当然不会折腾过来。。。现在父母打了疫苗，疫情相对好转，如果不用折腾去第三国了，单纯想过来团聚的就可以开始计划了啊。。。
这个不早都实施了吗？我同学全家4-5周前，从香港过到美国，送儿子上大学。全家都打了疫苗，不用隔离。我没问打的什么疫苗。
他们从美国回到香港，得在酒店隔离14天后、回家再隔离7天。
为什么就不能是为了家人团聚呢？
国内的舆论是千万别放开，如果决定放开才会有巨大的舆论压力。
在国内，从疫情中高风险的地方去其他地方也一样要隔离的，并非专门针对国外。
这是个相互承认的问题，美国打的疫苗在国内也没被approved
这次你错怪战狼了，他们不关心对等，他们的意见是千万别出国。
欧盟目前的疫苗护照是不认中国疫苗的，这是个政治问题而不是技术问题。
家人过来探亲容易但是回去怎么办？
隔离喽。老人退休了不在乎时间。
要回国探亲只能辞工了
你除了会judge 别人，还会干嘛！有人家里有事，要你在这指手画脚，滚
香港有些时候不属于中国lol
哎哟喂，戳到了痛处吧，这么凶相毕露。哦，原来是个革命者，惹不起
这不是一时吧，旅行限制已经一年半了啊。我和爸妈两年多没见面了，我家二娃已经两岁，上幼儿园了，不需要大人怎么忙，但是我的爸妈还没有见过我的二娃，当然想见啊。我是独生子女，这也是他们唯二俩孙辈。你说他们来了会不会帮把手，做做饭陪孩子玩什么的，那肯定会啊。但是要说就指着他们来做家务带娃，那也不是的。主要还是互相想念嘛。在美国游山玩水的吸引力比不过亲人之间的互相想念啊。我爸妈一直都很想过来，对第三国呆14天也多次表示OK，只是我不愿让他们承担人生地不熟+疫情的第三国风险。如果真的放宽，对我们这样的家庭肯定是大好消息。
主要是一旦过来了，再回国就太麻烦了，绿码隔离折腾不说，万一出个什么问题被安上“境外输入”，立马就能被网暴社死，想想都可怕。
我也家有小娃，但白天有保姆，晚上老公也很给力，完全不需要父母帮忙。我跟父母关系非常好，每天都视频语音的那种。看着小娃一天天长大，非常希望父母能抱一抱，亲一亲，过几天含饴弄孙的日子。父母也非常希望来看看孩子们，回国隔离虽然很不方便，但是也忍了。这次疫情让我觉得人生不确定的事情太多，只要有机会还是要多跟家里人聚聚。
隔离期间倒时差身体不适谁照顾呢？
他们是F-1签证，父母探亲是B-2, 最讨厌你这种叫留学生小留的大妈。
我听说美国这边的大学承认中国疫苗
