> Given that, what is your issue with the USA allowing vaccinated travellers... 30% of all new COVID cases in Los Angeles are in fully vaccinated individuals. Israel, one of the most highly vaccinated countries in the world, is reporting record new cases. The vaccines are effective at reducing the risk of severe illness and death, but the data is now very clear that they do not prevent people from becoming infected and infecting others. If the US wants to reduce the risk that it will be among the first in line to get every new variant, it would need to embrace the only approach that has proven effective: limit arrivals and force arrivals to quarantine for a sufficient amount of time. Of course, you could argue that the cost of this exceeds the benefits. But either way, it's time to let go of the idea that people who are vaccinated are not at risk of catching and spreading the virus. It's just not the case.
