The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is reducing Covid-19 vaccine requirements for international travelers.
Persons traveling to the United States will be considered fully vaccinated 14 days after the first dose.
This applies to both Pfizer and Moderna vaccines in travelers vaccinated after August 16, 2022, when the bivalent formulation first became available.
It should be noted that these travel requirements are not being applied to US citizens and permanent residents.
The move complies with CDC vaccination guidance, under which unvaccinated people are now considered fully immunized after a single dose of the bivalent vaccine, which protects against more strains than the original shot.
