US travellers to Malta
I am a resident of Minnesota in the United States. My dad and stepmother live in New Mexico. Both states are now on Malta’s ‘red’ list.
It has now been several months since we’ve all completed either both shots of the US Centres for Disease Control-approved Pfizer/BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine or the Johnson & Johnson single-shot. But Malta does not currently accept proof of these.
We had booked travel to meet dear, long-time family friends from Denmark (also vaccinated) in Malta in August. Now we are all nervously watching the Maltese news every day and keeping an eye out as our travel dates loom.

Isabela Biddle, 13, of Hughesville, left, and Leslie Smith of Williamsport used what materials they could find and made masks early in the COVID pandemic when masks were unavailable. Isabela worked from her home and Leslie worked from her studio at the Pajama Factory in Williamsport.
With the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic came lingering anxieties and fears about friends, family members and even the possibility of contracting the virus themselves.
Isabela “Izzie” Biddle, Hughesville student, and Leslie Smith, Pajama Factory sewist, made it their mission to make and distribute face masks to not only provide a Center for Disease Control-approved method of safety, but to also ease the anxiety and fear surrounding the virus.
