Biden restricts travel from South Africa and 7 other countries starting Monday
CNN ^ | 1 hr 20 min ago | Kaitlan Collins

Posted on 11/28/2021 7:24:35 AM PST by entropy12

Acting on advice from the nation's top infectious diseases expert, Dr. Anthony Fauci, and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Biden administration will restrict travel from South Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Namibia, Lesotho, Eswatini, Mozambique and Malawi.

Biden on Friday night signed the official proclamation restricting the travel of those "physically present" in the countries during the "14-day period preceding their entry, or attempted entry into the United States."

The proclamation includes a list of those exempted from the new restrictions, including US citizens, lawful permanent residents and noncitizens who are the spouses of citizens or permanent residents.

Great news for me this morning, my daughter just landed in Boston from South Africa! She was on a 2 week tour of S.A. and was originally scheduled to return on 30th of this month. But with the covid situation her flight from S.A to London was cancelled. The airlines of course jacked up the prices by a huge amount, but she managed to find a flight to Boston, and I heaved a big sigh of relief.

All of this is basically too late. You have the Omikron already in Amsterdam and Germany. Pretty good odds by tomorrow night....there’s three or four locations of the US reporting it.

Aren’t travel bans racist? Does the left not remember, or do they just think we don’t?

All for 4 mild cases of fully “vaccinated” people.

No one has died from, but the media is once again acting like it’s the end of the world.

Many will fall for the lies, deceit and deception every time hook, line and sinker.

Remember when President Trump restricted travel out of 1 city in China. Joe called him a racist and a xenophobe.

Of course. Brandon’s puppet masters have to make sure that they get all of the patients zero into the US before stopping the travel from those countries.

How can we forget? Yap, Trump was a xenophobe for banning travel from China, but Biden will be hailed as a hero for stopping Africans from landing in US.

Good news re your daughter.

We have a question for relatives, who need to fly to the East Coast and Floriduh in early December and back.

They both are healthy and in their mid 50’s, had the Delta this summer, survived and are not vaccinated.

Can they fly if they pass the quick test before they fly?

Thanks for any input.

Excuse me, but I was told that this kind of action by a US President is racist.

If an America and liberty loving president had done this, the mass media would work with Congress to impeach him for racism —

glad your daughter is safe.

Obviously (just like Trump) this is a racist policy to keep Africans out of this country. If I remember temporary bans are racist according to Democrats

If they didn’t have double standards they wouldn’t have any.
