WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. is rolling out new COVID-19 rules for travelers flying into the country. They will take effect in November. The rules will affect Americans and noncitizens alike, as the White House seeks to restore more normal air travel after 18 months of disruption caused by COVID-19. All adult foreign nationals traveling to the U.S. will be required to be fully vaccinated before boarding their flight.
