Giving in Getting a new edition of CNN 10 off the gram ground.
I am Carl Azuz.
It’s always great to have you watching.
There is a debate taking place over COVID testing for U.S. airline passengers.
We’ve told you late last year how travellers and on some international flights are required to take a rapid coronavirus test and prove they don’t have viruses the virus before they can fly.
The Biden Adminitration is thinking about requiring a negative covid test for everyone travelling domestically.
Meaning, Maine, Montana or Mississippi, you will have to prove your you`ve recently tested negative for covid 19.
To be clear, this is not a requirement yet. The government does now mandate that people in on public transportation will wear masks but it doesn’t require negative coronavirus tests to fly within the United States.
The U.S. Transportation Secretary says the decision on that hasn’t been made yet but he says “he‘s there has got to be commone sense medicine and science really driving this”. The Cheif Executive Officer of Delta Airlines says that since the pademic started, coronavirus transmission on planes has been “absolutely minimial” and he says requiring tests for all domestic airlines passengers will would create a logistical nightmare that wouldn’t make travellers safer but would take tests away other people who are sick. So, we will see what where the government lands on this.
The airline industry is an important part of the U.S. economy. At It an accounts for about 5% of nation’s nations’ gross domestic product every year. And whether they are in the air or on the ground, people in America and beyond their are trying to balance to health concerns with desire to get back to normal. In some places, its it’s business is as usual with a few signs of and restrictions related to the pandemic. In others,
