Why are people allowed to enter the United States by walking across the southern border from Mexico and not required to get a COVID test dated within three days of entry? Yet people are required to have the test showing they are COVID-free if they fly into the United States from any country. I have yet to receive an answer from the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Department.
