U.S. CDC head says people who are fully vaccinated and willing to wear face masks are OK to travel, but travel advisory is mainly for the benefit of the unvaccinated

Cars with U.S. licence plates enter Canada at the Stanstead, Quebec, border crossing as seen from Derby Line, Vt., Monday Aug. 9, 2021. THE CANADIAN PRESS/AP-Wilson RingThe head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says the U.S. told Americans to “reconsider travel” to Canada mainly for the benefit of those not yet vaccinated against COVID-19.

That move to Level 2 coincided with Canada’s decision earlier in August to allow fully vaccinated U.S. citizens and permanent residents back into the country. “We receive travel health notices and check and typically watch those daily; those look at testing capacity as well as case rates and we update our travel guidance by country in real time,” Walensky told a COVID-19 task force briefing Tuesday.

“Nationally, new admissions of patients with confirmed COVID-19 are currently at their highest levels since the start of the pandemic for all age groups under 50 years old,” the agency says.

Other than unvaxxed children under 12 accompanied by a fully vaxxed parent(s) or guardian(s) are we letting any of the Walking Unvaxxed 'Mericans in...I'm surprised the latter would even have a valid US Passport?

That's rich

I guess the CDC is unaware of the criteria for Americans entering Canada.

We don’t let unvaccinated in

Still a dumbass thing for the CDC to say as we don’t let into Canada the unvaccinated .

Why are the unvaccinated even allowed into Canada? Do we not have enough domestic idiots, without importing them?

JustinTrudeau should take that as as a clue to it being time to close the borders again. Especially because if delta & its inflamation state side Great time to call an ELECTION Trudeau!!!!
