another point is that not too long ago, the airlines themselves did a study which showed that covid cases that traced back to a flight are extremely rare. So, it’s mind boggling they are going along with this. I’m sure there’s a connection to bailouts.

@Michael *******

Aristo Chang, that may be true but I would expect the matter to end up in court. If all the airlines are in bed with the CDC and deny a person to board because they don’t want to test or tested positve , they are effectively blocking entry, which is not legal. That’s why the Thais coming back to Thailand on repatriation flights weren’t tested before flying. It didn’t matter. They could not be denied entry into their own country.

nevertheless, my statement still stands. Anyone (including US officials) who tell you otherwise are lying.

@Aristo ******

I wouldn’t believe any information CNN puts out. Again, if you’re a citizen, you can not be blocked from entering the USA.

@Margarita ***********

if that’s true, that doesn’t apply to US citizens. They can’t legally prevent a citizen from entering.

herbs are biological also, so it’s not an oxymoron. An honest politician is an oxymoron.

No, if I die my fiancé will know. No reason to get the embassy involved. All I need them for is to renew my passport when needed.

@Ahkim *******

the op is talking about a retirement visa, not a tourist visa.

sorry but it’s “Stuart and I”. You were doing well in your grammar correction.

I’ve never done online reporting. Would you mind sharing the link?
