U.S. federal employees and travelers to the United States will no longer be required to be vaccinated against Covid-19 from the evening of May 11.
The lifting of the vaccination obligation corresponds to the end of the state of health emergency declared by Washington in January 2020. Since the inauguration of President Joe Biden, "deaths due to Covid.-19 have decreased by 95% and hospitalizations by almost 91%," explains the US executive in a statement. The United States is officially the country that has paid the heaviest price for the pandemic, with more than a million deaths.
