I’ve seen a lot of Faucci on the news today and not seen him mention travel.

There is speculation in the press that the President may announce you have to be vaccinated to travel on a plane or train as that’s federal so under his remit.

Yeah, haven't seen anything via Fauci on travel - mostly about vaccine uptake and boosters. I think they've released Joe's 6 talking points for tomorrow.

I think it was some sort of reference to "travel events" but not sure it means what people were thinking tbh.

To be honest, if it has to get to questions for anything travel ban related it’s game over anyway for probably another few months.

I’ve got an inkling, as mentioned earlier, it will be further restrictions for travel. I’m surprised between states vaccinated travel isn’t a thing already, as essentially for all intents and purposes if you went from Hawaii to New York that’s like visiting two different countries.

yes travel events, very very unspecific so could be read into anything travel related. As I say all pure speculation but I choose to be excited at the prospect of even a slight chance of an update!

So does this apply to the children who have not had the MMR jab, men who have not had a prostate inspection, women who have not had a smear test, smokers, drinkers and people who don’t eat healthy food. There are a lot more illnesses than COVID that our population has chosen to circumnavigate for years if not decades.

There are consequences for every choice.
None of those cause the level of transmissibility. None of these are considered a pandemic that needs urgent and severe action right now. And remember it is this that is actually causing the problems in some of the areas you mention.

Well for Hawaii there are currently pretty strict requirements for going there. As for the lower 48, it would be very hard to do that, Hammie. Probably impossible.

I’m not sure about the validity or where they got their information but I’ve just received an email from attraction tickets offering me a refund on my Disney tickets because all holidays are cancelled up to 15 October?
