Operative words
I am extending the duration of the Order until I determine that the danger of further introduction of COVID-19 into the United States has ceased to be a serious danger to the public health, and continuation of the Order is no longer necessary to protect the public health. Every 30 days, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) shall review the latest information regarding the status of the COVID-19 pandemic and associated public health risks to ensure that the Order remains necessary to protect the public health.
Enforcement
Notes
Made the border suspension indefinite in May 2020; the same 'until I determine' formula carried into the October 2020 and August 2021 orders.
