Any news on travel ban for Indian citizens? Since Indian COVID cases are going down, can we expect the ban to lift soon?

I read somewhere (so sorry I can’t remember where!!) that UK was looking like September. I feel like the end of the year might be the case for India.

Us from Europe and the UK have had that issue for a while now!
Hopefully Biden will lift this ban in July, makes no sense for vaccinated people

Doubt it. EU ban has been in place for over a year and they are doing better at the moment than India and still the ban isn't lifted.

Looks at Canada, it’s been shut for almost 1.5 year now, probably early next year

Yeah, as others have indicated, the reasonable order of bans being lifted seem to be:
Canada: July
Mexico: Jul/Aug
EU/UK: Sep
India: given the above trends, not likely till significant vaccine coverage, ie, 2022

Do I ask my OBGYN or my IVF Dr for this prescription? My obgyn is a believer that a baby is nature’s choice; she didn't give me anything during my last pregnancy so I’m not sure how helpful she’d be this time.
