The following report is from Israel Hayom:
Amid the chaos and confusion at the airport, the United States said it had taken at least one step to ease requirements for those seeking to leave: COVID-19 tests.
Although Afghanistan had been a hotspot for the coronavirus pandemic, the State Department said Thursday that evacuees are not required to get a negative COVID-19 result to travel.
A blanket humanitarian waiver has been implemented for COVID testing for all persons the US government is relocating from Afghanistan.
Congress Introduces A Bill That Would Permanently Ban All Unvaccinated From Flight Travel
It referred questions about how the matter would be handled once evacuees arrive in the United States to the Department of Health and Human Services. Medical exams, including coronavirus tests, had been required for evacuees prior to Taliban’s weekend takeover of Kabul, which added extra urgency to efforts to get at-risk Afghans out of the country.
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
Go figure, right? So one minute testing is this ultra important thing in the states, but now that refugees are flying in it doesn’t matter. Of course, WinePress readers know that whole testing thing is a total ruse, but it demonstrates these rules never apply when the government and media don’t want them to.
Now in the weeks to come, the media will then say there is another “spike in cases,” and then the rightwing media will come back by pointing out this factoid – further fueling the political and societal divide.
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).
