The US powers through the pandemic
The U.S has powered through the pandemic but there have been inflationary side effects. This is because the U.S is a hot job market but with supply constraints. Having a cautious rebound in domestic leisure and business travel has contributed to accelerating consumer price inflation this summer. But travel companies have been regaining some of their pricing power. More particularly, prices for airfares, car rentals, and hotel stays have been swinging upward.
AstraZeneca’s vaccine produced in Europe is authorized
As mentioned yesterday, AstraZeneca’s vaccine produced in Europe has been authorized by the continent’s drug regulatory agency; but the same shot manufactured in India hasn’t been given the green light. Health officials say the situation will not only complicate travel and frustrate fragile economies but also undermine vaccine confidence by appearing to label some shots substandard.
The US lowered its travel advisory to a number of other EU countries
The US has now lowered its travel advisory for Germany, Austria and a number of other EU countries from Level 3 (Reconsider Travel) to Level 2 (Exercise Increased Caution).
Level 2 countries are those with moderate levels of Covid 19, noting that the chances of infection may be lower for fully vaccinated travelers. Travel advisory status was also lowered for Armenia, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, and Serbia.
