The New York Times reported that the EU is now planning to allow U.S. travelers who have completed their vaccinations to visit this summer, and von der Leyen stressed that he would unconditionally accept “people who have been vaccinated with vaccines approved by the European Medicines Agency (EMA),” which currently includes Pfizer, Modena, AZ and Jolson.

Von der Leyen said that “the 27 member states of the European Union will unconditionally accept those who have received EMA-approved vaccines”.

However, Von der Leyen still has not set a timetable for the EU to re-switch, representing that the situation will ultimately depend on the state of the epidemic, but she also affirmed that the United States is moving towards the goal of “herd immunity” by mid-June.

Newseum pointed out that the U.S. and the EU have been discussing for the past few weeks how to design vaccine certificates to allow people who have been vaccinated to travel, but in the past, many people believe that such certificates involve privacy, especially if they are handled digitally, which means that a database should be set up to store the information and be accessible to both Europe and the U.S., leading some to believe that this will further exacerbate the inequality between those who have been vaccinated and those who are forced to The vaccination.
