CDC: Unvaccinated Foreign Travelers Under Age Of 18 No Longer Need To Self-Quarantine Upon Arrival – By OAN Newsroom (OANN) / Oct 31 2021
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention put an end to its quarantine requirements for unvaccinated foreign travelers under the age of 18 upon arrival to the U.S.
On Saturday, CDC Director Rochelle Walensky signed a reverse order making it so the children of foreign nationals won’t be required to quarantine for seven days. The move comes in response to concerned parents earlier this week, as well as airline companies who say it could harm international travel.
“Based on the potential difficulty that self-quarantine may pose to children under 18 years of age especially when accompanied by a vaccinated parent or guardian who is not required to self-quarantine, CDC has determined that self-quarantine should not be required,” the order reads.
