Will the USA change their covid testing rules?

Anyone else a bit nervous about travelling to the states during the summer?

We have the tests and a zoom observation session booked but desperately hoping the policy is changed so I can relax.

Under 18s travelling with a fully jabbed adult need not be vaccinated.

Yes, but will they still need a video test as they are unvaccinated. I understand testing will be dropped for vaccinated travellers. Currently, all children over two years of age need a test to go. On Sunday when the rules change it will be interesting to see if this applies to unvaccinated children.

"Yes, but will they still need a video test as they are unvaccinated".

Not so.

Children 17 and under are exempt from the vaccination requirement. Children under 2 years old do not need to take a pre-departure test in any case.

For travel, the US definition of a fully vaccinated child is the same as the definition of a fully vaccinated adult.
