Nonessential travelers must present proof they have been fully vaccinated with a vaccine approved for emergency use by the WHO to cross the land border into the U.S. The AP reports that by mid-January, even essential travelers, like truckers, will need to provide proof of vaccination to cross the border into the U.S.
