Biden weighs U.S. travel restrictions to slow COVID variants | Miami Herald

The Biden administration is considering whether to impose domestic travel restrictions, including on Florida, fearful that coronavirus mutations are threatening to reverse hard-fought progress on the pandemic.

Outbreaks of the new variants including a highly contagious one first identified in the United Kingdom, as well as others from South Africa and Brazil that scientists worry can evade existing vaccines have lent urgency to a review of potential travel restrictions within the United States, one federal official said.
