byDaniel McCarthy/
Turks and Caicos is again changing its entry requirements for inbound travelers.
从立即开始到2月底,土耳其人和凯科斯将要求所有访客两岁及以上,以提供参赛前Covid-19测试的证明。该国还将继续要求所有16岁及以上的年龄段以显示疫苗接种的证明,或者在进入餐厅和酒吧时进行阴性Covid-19测试。
Authorities in Turks are also limiting public gatherings to continue to deal with COVID-19 caseload—religious and church ceremonies, including weddings and funerals, will be limited to 50% of their approved capacity.
In a statement, the Turks and Caicos Island Tourist Board said its protocols have continued to allow travel to safely continue to the islands since it reopened its borders in July 2020.
“These updated protocols are a proactive response to the Omicron variant and underscore the destination’s commitment to health and safety, expanding on its already vigilant travel protocols, which have been in place for travelers since July 22, 2020, when Turks and Caicos opened its borders to tourists,” it said.
“The Turks and Caicos Islands also continue to promote its vaccine campaign among residents, with 80 percent of the adult population being fully vaccinated with the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine—making it one of the most inoculated countries in the world.”
According to Worldometers, Turks and Caicos are coming off of its COVID-19 peak from earlier this month when the country reported 924 daily active cases on Jan. 17. Yesterday, on Jan. 27, that number was down to 242.
