In pictures: In United States, returning travelers, tourists and separate families hurry to borders

Portfolio More than thirty countries are affected by the lifting of entry restrictions for “non-essential” travelers, which are for most European countries, Mexico and Canada.

This is the end of a separation of more than a year and a half between the Americans and the rest of the world. The Travel Ban (“Prohibition of Travel”) imposed on travelers by the former US President Donald Trump in March 2020 because of the coronavirus, was lifted Monday, November 8.

More than thirty countries are involved in the lifting of entry restrictions for “non-essential” travelers, which are for most European countries, Mexico and Canada, but visitors will remain under surveillance.

Now, for those who arrive by the air, the United States is asking for evidence of vaccination, the results of a three-day test at most and the implementation by the airlines of a system of Track contacts.

For people arriving by land, the lifting of restrictions will be done in two stages. Since Monday can cross borders people coming for family or tourist reasons, provided they are vaccinated; People coming for imperious patterns – like road drivers – are exempted from this obligation. From January, it will be worth for all visitors, regardless of their pattern of entry.

From the first hour Monday, tourists and families separated by the coronavirus have been in a hurry at airports and land borders.
