The Biden administration is set to enact COVID-19 restrictions for travelers coming from China due to rising coronavirus cases and transparency concerns from the Communist nation.
On January 5, all air passengers older than two years of age will be forced to provide a negative COVID-19 test less than two days before departing from China, Hong Kong, and Macau.
The restrictions will apply to all air travelers despite nationality and how many COVID-19 vaccines they’ve received. The rules will require airlines to confirm the results of the passengers COVID-19 test, or recovery documentation prior to boarding.
Passengers from China passing through the Incheon International Airport in Seoul, South Korea, Toronto’s Pearson International, and Vancouver International Airports will have to show proof of a COVID-19 test less than two days before departing to the U.S. if they had been to China in the last two days.

Critics of the Chinese have claimed that the situation has resulted in inadequate health infrastructure, as the communists are allegedly halting reports on COVID-19 data.
The Biden administration has expressed concerns over the potential rise of new COVID-19 variants.

“We have very limited information and public databases about variants that are circulating in China presently. In the past few months only about 100 sequences have been uploaded,” one Biden administration health official said a press briefing Wednesday.
I was reliably told about three years ago that travel restrictions on China were racist

The move is seen as hypocritical by some conservatives, who pointed out that former President Donald Trump battled allegations of “racism” over correctly pointing out that the COVID-19 virus originated from China.
As Democrats assailed the 45th President over his allegedly anti-Chinese “racism,” House Speaker Nancy Pelosi even took a trip to Chinatown to encourage travel and show solidarity in February 2020.
Crazy Nancy Pelosi deleted this from her Twitter account. She wanted everyone to pack into Chinatown long after I closed the BORDER TO CHINA. Based on her statement, she is responsible for many deaths. She’s an incompetent, third-rate politician! pic.twitter.com/uWNI7DCG3o

“She wanted everyone to pack into Chinatown long after I closed the BORDER TO CHINA,” the former president tweeted in April 2020. “Based on her statement, she is responsible for many deaths. She’s an incompetent, third-rate politician!”
As of the publication of this article, zero Democrats have accused the Biden administration of “racism” for eyeing Chinese travel restrictions.
