The U-S is lifting COVID-19 vaccination requirements for foreign air travellers and at the border as of May 12th.

Canada ended its vaccination requirements for foreign visitors back in October.    

The White House says deaths from COVID-19 around the world are at their lowest levels since the start of the pandemic, and 95 per cent lower in the U-S than they were in January 2021.
