The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is expanding the requirement for a negative COVID-19 test to all air passengers entering the United States effective January 26.

Testing before and after travel is a critical layer to slow the introduction and spread of COVID-19, the CDC reports. This strategy is consistent with the current phase of the pandemic and more efficiently protects the health of Americans.

Variants of the SARS-CoV-2 virus continue to emerge in countries around the world, and there is evidence of increased transmissibility of some of these variants. With the US already in surge status, the testing requirement for air passengers will help slow the spread of the virus as the US work to vaccinate the American public, the CDC says.

How it works

Before departure to the United States, a required test, combined with the CDC recommendations to get tested again 3-5 days after arrival and stay home for 7 days post-travel, will help slow the spread of COVID-19 within US communities from travel-related infections. Pre-departure testing with results known and acted upon before travel begins will help identify infected travelers before they board airplanes.

Air passengers are required to get a viral test (a test for current infection) within the three days before their flight to the U.S. departs, and provide written documentation of their laboratory test result (paper or electronic copy) to the airline or provide documentation of having recovered from COVID-19. Airlines must confirm the negative test result for all passengers or documentation of recovery before they board.

If a passenger does not provide documentation of a negative test or recovery or chooses not to take a test, the airline must deny boarding to the passenger.

“Testing does not eliminate all risk,” says CDC Director Robert R. Redfield, MD, “but when combined with a period of staying at home and everyday precautions like wearing masks and social distancing, it can make travel safer, healthier, and more responsible by reducing spread on planes, in airports, and at destinations.”

When it begins

This order was signed by the CDC Director on Jan. 12, 2021, and will become effective on Jan. 26, 2021.

@PDPGuy,

Deep retrenchment of 20%+ across all cryptos in the last 24 hours. We are slightly approaching panic mode. I done activate my MARA short. I will only deactivate if markets recover small before NASDAQ opening, but it seems we are entering panic territory now.

Nah I wasn't right on Bïtcoin. I was expecting a correction in the short term before it proceeds again. I don't have the stomach for Bïtcoin jare cos I keep expecting it to crash. I did small trade on Saturday evening when it was around $31k, rode it up to $34, as soon as it dropped to $32k, my mind cut and I withdrew. Since then its gone to 41 but I don't have the stomach at any of these prices. I will wait for a steep correction before I enter. In the meantime, I just prefer to be collecting steady $30 or $40 gains per day from my êtoro copies, that one is stress free that I just check once or twice a day, not refreshing my phone every minute like when I'm in bitcoin position. I'm.just waiting for Bïtcoin to start dropping to short MARA and Riot, then when it stabilises, I will enter long position on bïtcoin. Till then na siddon look.
