The Wall Street Journal reported that the U.S. government will require passengers on all international flights to the U.S. to submit negative COVID-19 tests before boarding.
The Wall Street Journal cited people familiar with the matter and reported that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention plans to issue the order as early as the 12th local time.
The newspaper said the order would take effect on the 26th.
The Wall Street Journal said that U.S. citizens returning to the U.S. from abroad are also obligated to submit negative corona19 tests before boarding a flight to the U.S.
The newspaper says US federal agencies and the White House’s Covid-19 Task Force have been discussing the issue for weeks.
The U.S. so far has only required all passengers on flights from the UK to submit negative COVID-19 confirmations.
Prior to the U.S., Canada has already mandated all international flights, starting on the 7th, to submit negative COVID-19 tests to airlines before boarding.
