Americans will soon have to quarantine when they travel to Israel regardless of whether or not they have been vaccinated. This comes after Israel places a “severe travel warning” on the United States. According to the Jerusalem post, “ISRAEL CURRENTLY determines the status of a country based on a combination of the local level of morbidity and coronavirus trends on the one hand, and on the number of infected inbound travelers from that nation entering Israel on the other. The rate of infection among the travelers is also considered.”

With the new warning, Israelis are prohibited from traveling to America. This all takes effect on August 11th.

The Washington Post adds:

Israel issued travel warnings against 17 other countries, including France, Germany, Greece and many other top summer tourists destinations where a percentage of returning travelers have tested positive for the more contagious delta variant of the coronavirus.

In light of this news, travelers are now scrambling to change plans.
