Last National COVID-19 Jab Mandates (FINALLY) Scrapped


The Biden administration is finally scrapping the remaining national COVID-19 jab mandates.

That includes the immoral, unscientific COVID-19 jab mandate that banned unvaccinated international air travelers.

Although unvaccinated illegal migrants could cross the U.S. southern border, unvaccinated foreigners were banned from arriving on a flight.

The United States was among the final countries to apply this nonsensical, authoritarian mandate.

The mandate will come to an end on May 11th.

COVID-19 jab mandates also end for federal employees & contractors, Head-Start educators, and CMS-certified facilities.

From The White House:

Today, we are announcing that the Administration will end the COVID-19 vaccine requirements for Federal employees, Federal contractors, and international air travelers at the end of the day on May 11, the same day that the COVID-19 public health emergency ends. Additionally, HHS and DHS announced today that they will start the process to end their vaccination requirements for Head Start educators, CMS-certified healthcare facilities, and certain noncitizens at the land border. In the coming days, further details related to ending these requirements will be provided.

With the ban on unvaccinated foreign travelers finally ending, tennis star Novak Djokovic can compete in the 2023 U.S. Open.

The pureblood athlete was unable to compete at prior tournaments due to the ban.

The 2023 U.S. Open takes place in New York City in August and September.

AP reported:

Novak Djokovic can return to the U.S. Open this year after missing the tournament in 2022, because the federal government’s COVID-19 vaccination mandate for foreign air travelers ends next week.

“Novak Djokovic is a great champion, a fan favorite, and now that the federal government has lifted its vaccine requirements for international travelers, we look forward to welcoming him back to New York for the 2023 U.S. Open,” U.S. Tennis Association spokesman Chris Widmaier wrote in an email to The Associated Press on Tuesday.

The White House announced Monday most of the last remaining federal COVID-19 vaccine requirements will disappear May 11, when the national public health emergency for the coronavirus ends.

The U.S. Open, the season’s final Grand Slam tournament, begins in New York in August.

Djokovic, a 35-year-old from Serbia, has missed several key events — including the 2022 U.S. Open — because he decided not to get inoculated against the coronavirus.
