This new African ban is designed to make it harder for people of color to immigrate to the US. We cannot allow this xenophobic racist to succeed. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/po...onavirus-related-travel-restrictions-n1255484 Biden to reinstate Covid travel restrictions Trump rescinded, impose new ban on South Africa The limits would also affect non-U.S. citizens traveling from the United Kingdom, Ireland and much of Europe. President Joe Biden plans to sign restrictions Monday on travel to the United States to mitigate Covid-19 transmission, two White House officials confirmed Sunday. The ban would prevent most non-U.S. citizens from entry if they have recently been in South Africa, where a new strain of Covid-19 has been identified. The virus has killed more than 418,000 people and infected upward of 25 million across the U.S., according to an NBC News tracker. Biden is also expected to reinstate broader restrictions that were in effect much of the past year but were rescinded by President Donald Trump days before his term ended. The limits would affect non-U.S. citizens traveling from the United Kingdom, Ireland and much of Europe in what is known as the Schengen countries, which share a common visa process. Travelers from Brazil would also be affected.
It's too late to implement travel bans to/from any country, period. By the time a new variant of a contagious thing is "discovered", it's already all over the world. Like the original virus! How many fucking times do I have to post the proof of this? If you want to stop the virus from spreading, you have to shut down all air-travel, period. 9/11 style, and close all borders, for months. And that AIN'T happening! Does nobody else here understand how air travel impacts the world? Can nobody else connect dots over a 24-hour period?!? Just wear the fucking masks! For fuck's sake!
