U.S. govt won't impose COVID-19 screenings for flights from Britain - sources

Tue, 22nd Dec 2020 16:44

WASHINGTON/CHICAGO, Dec 22 (Reuters) - The U.S. government
does not intend to impose COVID-19 screenings for passengers
traveling from Britain after the emergence of a highly
infectious new coronavirus variant there, people briefed on the
decision said.

A White House coronavirus task force discussed requiring
negative pre-flight tests after a meeting on Monday, but the
government has decided not to take any action for the time
being, the people said.
