US opens to vaccinated travellers from Ireland

Irish citizens who are fully vaccinated will be permitted to travel to the United States again from today. 

Irish citizens who are fully vaccinated will be permitted to travel to the United States again from today, as the Biden administration lifts the travel ban that was brought in during the early days of the pandemic.

The ban, introduced by Mr Biden’s predecessor Donald Trump, had prohibited most non-US citizens who had been in Ireland, the UK, the rest of Europe and a host of other countries for the past 14 days from travelling to the US.
