Travelers from California, Texas and Florida Still Required to Quarantine as Kenya Clears 130 Countries for 'Safe Flights'

The government has updated the list of countries from which travelers are exempted from 14-day quarantine upon arrival in Kenya.

111 more countries have been added to the new list approved by the Ministry of Transport and the Kenya Civil Aviation Authority (KCAA).

The government had initially cleared 19 countries following the resumption of international flights on August 1st.

Travelers arriving in the country from 130 countries including Afghanistan, Barbados, the Cayman Islands, India, and Russia will not be subject to quarantine.

Neighboring Tanzania, South Sudan, and Somalia did make it to the list alongside Brazil, and South Africa.

All passengers from the US have also been exempted from quarantine except those from the states of California, Texas, and Florida.

Travelers from the 130 approved nations will be required to carry a PCR-based Covid-19 certificate and will only be subjected to a body temperature test.

The cleared countries are deemed to have mild or limited community transmissions or declining incidences of coronavirus.

Below is the full list of the 130 countries.

You know the funny thing is, l am in Texas but this things of Texas with Covid number are high. where and who have it? This is all lies and it really working well here in America since they are the one who want to develop the vaccine and so America is the base where things need to be exagerated and the world will follow suite. I keep telling people the minute l will hear Tanzania the populate has been wipe out then let start talking and l will relocate there to help rebuilt since the entire population died of Covid. See Kenya the way they keep announcing 500 have contact it and make is look like its such an achievement and then go for a meeting and spend KSH.4m on a thermos of Tea and Mandazi... jinga nyinyi... No corona but its another strait of flu which is a single strait that was manipulated in the lab. Let the light shine and chase white man darkness away . Those who use the sword will die by the sword and l say those who come up with this virus will die by the same virus.

Its total rubbish thinking that they can allow travelers from the US but exclude Texas, California and Florida. How will they verify if someone from those states travels from another state? If the traveler does not carry for example the California ID and list an address in New York or New Mexico, how will they know? They should stop lying to people.

Kenya is a very interesting country. We are allowing second hand clothes (Mituba) from people who have died of Covid-19 in US. Some of those Mituba's are from Texas, California and Florida but we want to quarantine our own citizens who do not have Covid-19 from those states.
Remember, we allowed 239 Chinese in but held our own in quarantine in terrible conditions.
Judgment is on the four corners of the earth. Everyone is about to reap what they have sown. Good or bad. It's time.
Let us watch the drama as it unfolds. We need to remember our National Anthem. Ooh God our strength. That is who is in control, not man.

Kenya is accepting mitumba from Covid-19 dead people in USA ( including California, Texas and Florida) and other European nations but will quarantine its citizens from the same place.
What kind of selective prevention is this?
It's looks like history repeating itself.
We allowed 239 Chinese into Kenya during Covid-19 advising them to self-quarantine but put our own citizens into quarantine under very harsh conditions.
Let us watch God's Masterplan unfold. The world is under judgment after 400 years of enslaving the black man.
