From Southwest today:
| Starting November 8, the U.S. Government will require anyone traveling into the United States to provide COVID-19-related documentation and contact tracing information. If you're not a U.S. citizen, U.S. national, U.S. lawful permanent resident, or an immigrant, your requirements for entry are different and can be found here. What you need to do Before boarding, every Southwest Airlines® Passenger will need to give us an address where you can be reached once you land in the U.S. Every U.S. citizen, U.S. national, U.S. lawful permanent resident, and immigrant must show all of the documentation below depending on which group you're in: If you're fully vaccinated against COVID-19 (18 and up) A negative PCR or antigen test within 3 days (72 hours) before your flight into the U.S. or proof of recovery if you've recovered from COVID-19 in the last 90 days Proof of an approved COVID-19 vaccination1 If you're not fully vaccinated/unvaccinated against COVID-19 (18 and up) Provide a negative PCR or antigen test within 1 day (24 hours) before your flight into the U.S. or proof of recovery if you've recovered from COVID-19 in the last 90 days Travelers ages 2-17 When traveling with a fully vaccinated adult, a child must provide a negative PCR or antigen test taken within 3 days (72 hours) before their flight into the U.S. or proof of recovery if the child has recovered from COVID-19 in the last 90 days When traveling with a not fully vaccinated/unvaccinated adult, a child must provide a negative PCR or antigen test taken within 1 day (24 hours) before their flight into the U.S. or proof of recovery if the child has recovered from COVID-19 in the last 90 days |
| Everyone will need to show a paper or electronic copy of the required documentation above. If you don't have proof of a negative test or recovery from COVID-19, and choose not to take a test, you will not be allowed to board. If you are providing proof of recovery instead of a negative test, you will need a signed letter from a licensed healthcare provider or public health official stating you have been cleared for travel. |

OK the ground hog was pulled out of it's hole by it's handlers and read a decree off a teleprompter then scurried back without answering any questions.
Southwest has issued their alert but the other airlines seem to be hesitating as they try to find out the details. Since the airlines have to do the dirty work and screen the inbound passengers they probably want a little more details such as what are the acceptable forms of "Proof of an approved COVID-19 vaccination"
Electronic copy of a card or form?
Original Vaccination card (S)?
Copy of cards?
Can they be laminated?
Their are a lot of vaccinated US citizens currently out of the country that may not have the physical card on them.

Since amoxicillin paste seems reasonably active in SCTLD, it is likely that at least part of the disease is due to a relatively antibiotic susceptible bacteria. That does not mean that the disease is not multifactorial. It could be that water temperature, a viral infection, or other insult, allows for the bacterial infection responsive to antibiotic treatment.
It is frustrating that the etiology and effective treatment of SCTLD is not better defined after 7 years. Unfortunately, this seems like a very complex disease.
Well, SWA refers to electronic copies. They don't require actually paper copies of your antigen test, so why would they require paper vaccination certificates? All the arguments apply to both right?
I did sign up for CLEAR. That is really WAY cool for dodging security lines. It now captures the vaccine info and generates a QR code. Probably never be actually useful, but its kinda cool.
Well, they just have to get the test the day before then right? Seriously not a big deal I think. My niece and new husband will be down with us next month. They are both prior infection anti-vaxxers, so we will all just get tested at international.
But its is as I thought. All stick and no carrot. You get nothing for being vaccinated, but they take the stick to the the unvaccinated.
It does let foreigners in, so there is that.
Well of course that, but anyone that was into that, already is vaxxed right? My only point is there should be some carrot too. Sure the stick is working some, but maybe more would join up for some carrots right?
And #3 Moderna was a bit worse than #2. Got it afternoon on Thursday and the exhaustion kicked in Friday around 1000. Last night fever hit 100. Much better today. Just like recovering from too many margs....

My point is that they waited till the last minute to decree the new requirements and then do not clearly define the details of the rule and leave it to the already overworked airline counter staff to enforce it. This just fuels additional tension to an already hair trigger environment with a sizable portion of the population. As it is the inflight staff are being assaulted over mask enforcement, my fear is that the counter staff are next.
If anyone were to be assaulted I would prefer it be an employee of the executive branch rather than another airline employee, who has had go to work the last 19 months and not been able to hide at home.
