Every other country? Have you looked at the recent COVID-19 case and death rates in much of western Europe? Many of those countries, one of which I live in (which still doesn't require testing arrival passengers), are still changing their policies on incoming travelers with respect to quarantining and testing. There isn't some global consensus that the US is blind to.


I am glad you picked up on the substantive point of my argument.


It's this part that I'm responding to, which appears to be one of the main points that you made:

> Had the US implemented these measures 9 months ago, the entire world would have looking at the tail-end of this pandemic

I don't see how that's true given the situation in western Europe as well as several other countries and obviously the US.
