But it seems like Anthony Fauci again was wrong, saying just before that announcement that we don\u2019t know enough to ban <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/trip-and-travel\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"10\" title=\"Trip &amp; Travel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">travel<\/a>. It\u2019s long past time Fauci stepped aside.<\/p>\n<p>Restrictions, though, are not enough. Testing stations should be set up at international airports; even if passengers are vaccinated, we need to be on guard for breakthrough infections. Tests have become quick and inexpensive; they are a small hassle for visitors from abroad.<\/p>\n<p>The feds need to coordinate with local hospitals to perform proper contact tracing and quarantining at any sign of an Omicron outbreak. COVID-19 sneaked up on the US in 2020 and was already here by the time medical experts reacted properly. There\u2019s no excuse for the same flat-footed response this time.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/11\/biden-new-covid-variant-677.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024\" alt=\"A healthcare worker collects a swab for a PCR test against COVID-19.\" class=\"wp-image-20284552\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/11\/biden-new-covid-variant-677.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/11\/biden-new-covid-variant-677.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/11\/biden-new-covid-variant-677.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>A health care worker collects a swab for a PCR test against COVID-19.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">REUTERS \/ Sumaya Hisham<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<aside class=\"single__inline-module alignright\">\n    <\/aside>\n<p>Any plan that doesn\u2019t include the southern border is irresponsible.

All asylum seekers should be forced to wait outside the country.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Biden also has Title 42 at this disposal, which allows the deportation of illegal border crossers under medical emergencies. Biden cited Title 42 for some Haitians, then backed down in the face of progressive rage.

Now Biden has a much harder job than delivering a sale pitch. He\u2019s got to get tough and prevent Omicron from coming to America, to prevent the societal disasters that were lockdowns.<\/p>\n<p>You said you could do better, Joe.
