Starting Jan. 5, people flying from China will need a negative COVID-19 test within two days of their departure in order to enter the United States, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Wednesday.
The newly announced restrictions come amid what the CDC called a „surge“ in cases of COVID-19 in China as well as a „lack of adequate and transparent“ data being reported by the Chinese government.
Given this, the CDC highlighted concerns about being unable to monitor newly emerging variants of the virus.
