The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention approved a measure Tuesday that will require all international air travelers to obtain a negative COVID-19 test before flying to the states. The order goes into effect Jan. 26.
“Testing before and after travel is a critical layer to slow the introduction and spread of COVID-19,” the CDC said in a statement. “This strategy is consistent with the current phase of the pandemic and more efficiently protects the health of Americans.”
