US to accept WHO-approved vaccines for tourist entry

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has announced that the US will accept any COVID-19 vaccine approved by either US regulators or the World Health Organization when the country reopens its borders to vaccinated travelers in early November. Airlines for America said it was “pleased by the CDC’s decision to approve a list of authorized vaccinations for travelers entering the US” and looks forward “to working with the administration to implement this new global vaccine and testing framework by early November 2021.”
