No requirement to be vaccinated (even as non-citizen).
However the CDC “recommends” if you are unvaccinated, you isolate and get another test after arrival.
Unlike Australia, “recommend” is not enforced, I’ve travelled to the USA twice this year with family, we were never asked about our vaccination status.
That changed a few days ago, all non citizens arriving by air require proof of vaccination with only a few exemptions:
Requirement for Proof of COVID-19 Vaccination for Air Passengers Required for non-U.S. citizen, nonimmigrant passengers arriving from a foreign country to the United States by air
There’s restrictions on Australian citizens movement for now but they will be largely over by early next year. The previous posts were indicating a permanent long term loss of freedoms compared to the US, I’m just enquiring what those freedoms are that have been permanently lost?
