Would like to visit Venice, Italy. Australian citizen in the USA on a L1 visa. Vaccinated. Aiming Aug 3. Is this just foolish given all the delta variant uncertainty…?

I think you’re totally fine. Great time to do it while there are fewer tourists and lower prices. I’m in Spain at the moment. Actually, on further reflection, I’m not sure you’d be allowed back into the US from the EU if you’re not a US citizen unless the US relaxes travel restrictions. So, I’d go if the US does (which is possible before then), but not if they don’t (unless you have time to spend 14 days in a non-EU country before returning to the US).

I’ve been in the south of Spain so it may be a little different. Here restaurants close by midnight and bars by 2 am, and people are pretty serious about wearing masks, though you can get away without wearing one on streets (but not in palace gardens, for example). Other than that, it’s not a big deal.

August 3 seems incredibly unlikely for the travel ban to be lifted because the land borders with Canada and Mexico remain closed through mid August. I’m worried about my holiday in October..

L1 is not a permanent resident. The definition of perm resident is someone with a green card. L1 and H1 are currently both included in the travel ban, so we can enter Europe but we can’t come back to the US without spending 14 days in a third, unbanned country. Sorry to give you this news.

You do you...

@VP1 I think you might not be right…I need to validate with our immigration team, but i just found this. I have seen in other documents that my L1 makes me a perm resident alien…

And to clarify, a “non-citizen national” is someone born in a US territory, like Guam or American Samoa, who doesn’t have US citizenship, so that definitely doesn’t apply to you either

Have you considered going to Turkey instead? Both Istanbul and Cappadocia are super cool and interesting (highly recommend the Hilton Curio collection Hagia Sofia Mansions in Istanbul and the Exedra in Cappadocia), and Turkey is not subject to the travel ban. If you’ve been vaccinated, there’s no PCR test requirement to enter Turkey.

They’re going to start requiring vaccination proof for indoor dining and other large gathering events starting August 6th. You should be fine

Got covid from the UK , double vaxxed , and symptoms are wildly atrocious. Everyday I have different issues. I went from no fever to 102.4 in a couple of minutes. Blood oxygen dropped dangerously low and bounced back in a few minutes. Chills , cold sweats. My newest one is that my legs are so achey and sore it feels like they were beaten with a bat , just nonstop pain and can’t sleep. Anyone else experience these? Pretty sure I’d be hospitalized at a minimum without the vax

Our baby is due soon so we’ve made the decision that we will only have visits from vaccinated family members (not realizing it would be an issue) only to find out that my Dad will never be getting vaccinated, planned to lie about it AND asked other family members lie to us about his vaccination status too… when we found out and asked him about it, he started to FREAK out. Now I’m questioning if we’re being unreasonable… how have you guys been handling unvaccinated people meeting your newborns??
