The Biden administration may require more stringent testing for travelers.

The administration is considering a seven-day self-quarantine and retesting after arriving, according to a Washington Post report.

Biden plans to announce an enhanced winter covid strategy on December 2, 2021.

The requirement would mean that anyone coming to the U.S., including American citizens, would need to be tested one day before boarding a flight.

The details of the proposal are outlined in a draft public health order written by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and under review by the Department of Health and Human Services.

The administration said earlier this week that it did not believe there would be a need for lockdowns and that it was not anticipating further travel restrictions. The president called for caution in his address.
