Closed borders

No respite for RSA citizens and others wanting to travel to the U.S.


The US does not intend to lift Covid-19 travel restrictions for non-Americans, the White House has said.
The decision comes amid pressure from airlines and tourism industry lobbyists to lift the sweeping ban before the end of the summer travel season.
The decision was due to a rise in infections, the Delta variant's transmissibility and a recent advisory against travel to the UK.
Cases in the US continue to rise, particularly among the non-vaccinated.
Rising cases "appear likely to continue in the weeks ahead," said White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki to reporters on Monday, so the US "will maintain existing travel restrictions at this point".
The first round of travel restrictions due to Covid were imposed by the US on China in 2020 January.

Since then, the US ban has expanded to include non-US citizens who had recently visited the UK, the 26-nation Schengen bloc in Europe, Brazil, Ireland, India, Iran and South Africa.
Last week, Canada announced that vaccinated Americans would be allowed to visit starting on 9 August.
Despite this, the US said it will keep its borders shut to neighbours Canada and Mexico until at least 21 August.
It comes days after the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said that the highly-contagious Delta variant now accounts for 80% of all US cases.
On Thursday, CDC director Rochelle Walensky said that the weekly average for new infections had jumped by 53% in the previous week.
Vaccination rates have slowed in the US since peaking in the spring. US officials say nearly all new cases are appearing in those who are unvaccinated, and have begun referring to Covid as a "pandemic of the unvaccinated".

Latest US Covid news:
  • Starting in mid-September, all New York City municipal workers - including firefighters, police officers and teachers will be required to be vaccinated
  • More than 50 prominent US healthcare groups have issued a joint statement calling for healthcare workers to be required to get vaccinated
  • On Monday, the White House said that some people with the condition known as long Covid may qualify for disability assistance
  • The Department of Veterans Affairs has become the first federal government agency to require vaccinations for its healthcare staff
Close entry to other countries but let the southern border countries send all their garbage here.what a joke.and as far as this so called vaccine how do they call it that it's a shot .
 
Now there is one of the biggest travesties of the medical World's response to this plague!

If you get Covid-19 and end up in the hospital like I did, at least in the US, they will want to put you on a ventilator. I would appreciate any real informed confirmation or corrections on this, but I'm told the hospital gets an extra $38,000 in government funding if they put you on a ventilator. I absolutely did NOT need to be put on a ventilator. However that was the first thing they wanted to do! I'm probably alive today because I had an excellent, intelligent, informed advocate who can communicate very well with medical knowledge and real World experience.

In talking to the nurses, and in 18 days you do get to know them.... it started out that the discussion was "about 50% die while intibated". As we continued communing on the subject, especially with the male nurses who seem much more direct, it was moving towards 30% survival. Moreover you can about be guaranteed to come out with permanent negative lifetime effects. Such as scar tissue in your lungs, possibly having a stroke while down, etc. If I had been intibated and survived, I do not believe I could still be planning a 3 week full bag hunt in Tanzania. Much less anything that resembles the life I'm accustomed to living.

I would have gladly written a check for $38,000 to have them stop threatening to put me on that damned machine, give me some vitamins and a strong course of Z Pak. Oh and maybe follow some semblance of common sense treatment and therapy.

All those doctors gave a shit about was to follow the "CDC Guidelines" so they can collect their government money and be immune from a lawsuit. They pretty much left me to rot the first 10 days or so until they figured out I was to ornery to die....

No, you can take your damned government health system and shove it where the sun doesn't shine for all of me.
You had covid? If yes do you have any side effects? Were you vaccinated
 
They had to change the definition of a vaccine to be able to call this shot a vaccine. Sounds like democrats changing the rules again.
 
This has nothing to do with Democrats or Republicans, just plain USA-healthcare-greed, stupidity etc. Just give it a name.

Actually both groups politicians are costing this great country to sink lower and lower. We allow them too much power and also big pharma and big tech. I will just keep myself way out in the country. When they come to take my guns and land I hope they account for my redneck abilities and the fact that I ain’t giving up anything. Ever.

You think like me.
 
Well as a Canadian as announced by little trudope Hitler today I will not be allowed to fly within Canada or now leave Canada as I am an unclean scum non vaccinated Canadian. The more I see the more I hate this asshole and what's going on. Canada is over 88% double vaccinated, its NOT about saving people from getting sick now. What is it about? Why must mankind now have a spike "harmless" protein present in their bodies?? Please let the real vaccine/shot reason surface. Looking forward to it.

BTW I had Covid so in the majority of the world am equal to fully vaccinated with my immune system, and was when I came home 21 Sept, NOT in Canada now. No vaccine=Dirty dirty, evil one. Can't wait till the Vaccine Police come to get me.

Ashamed Canadian.

Have read today a couple of stories about how they are working on a nasal spray Covid vaccine. Says results in clinical trials look promising.
I like the sound of this, assuming its not just a nasal version of the current BS shots.
