You're looking for medical reasons where there aren't any. Other countries have removed such restrictions and nothing happened, because Omicron doesn't make unvaccinated people seriously ill - it has the same severity as a common cold - and people need health insurance anyway. The CDC doesn't provide medical care to anyone in any case, that's not their job. The real reason they keep the mandates is because they can, and because it is ideologically pleasing to them to punish people who reject the intellectual authority of the state.

We're talking about non-residents/citizens, I'm not sure I buy your argument because of that, it doesn't seem to make sense to want to uphold the intellectual authority of the state against non-residents. Also restrictions have endured both Republican and Democrats, so it also doesn't seem ideological. Hospitals in the US I believe will always treat you, but then send you a bill, they don't refuse emergency care. You cannot become a US resident without showing good health because they don't want you to freeload, and you also are forced to take all vaccines and prove immunity. Also, Covid is still killing people, it's definitely not like the cold, it's the third leading cause of death in the US now. I'm not saying this restriction helps in any way, but seems misguided to compare it to the common cold, at the very least it's closer to the influenza flu.
