The United States will raise May 11 evening the obligation to be vaccinated against Covid-19 which concerns federal civil servants and international travelers arriving by air, the White House announced on Monday. This lifting of the vaccination obligation corresponds to the end of the state of health emergency declared in January 2020.
The United States is officially the country that has paid the highest price for the pandemic, with more than a million deaths. Since January 2021, that is to say since the inauguration of President Joe Biden, “deaths due to Covid-19 have fallen by 95% and hospitalizations by almost 91%”, explains the American executive in a press release. He adds that by the time 270 million Americans have received at least one dose of the Covid-19 vaccine, “we are no longer in the same phase of responding to the pandemic as when these obligations were put in place.”
