The European Union is recommending that all Americans should be banned from travelling to member nations as the US struggles through a Delta surge

Countries have been advised to reintroduce a hard border and prevent the arrival of non-essential travelers from the States.

Each individual nation has the power to decide whether or not they will accept the recommended guidelines… which could be enacted at any time.

Following months of travel restrictions, the EU finally began opening up to the U-S in May as the tourism sector struggles to revive.

However, as the highly infectious Delta variant spreads around the world at rapid pace… and with many children now also getting sick, authorities are on high alert.

Meanwhile, US Infectious Disease expert Dr Anthony Fauci says his country has the ability to turn skyrocketing numbers around, by ensuring every eligible adult rolls up their sleeve to get vaccinated

TikTok users could soon find that the popular social media service is either under new ownership or could be outright banned in the United States.

President Joe Biden signed a bill into law that requires TikTok to find a new owner—or face a ban in the United States.

Over the past several months, Washington D.C. has been under pressure to ban the popular Chinese-owned social media app.

Lawmakers and security experts have long raised concerns that the Chinese government could tap TikTok’s trove of personal data about millions of U.S. users.

TikTok’s CEO said the bill is disappointing and reiterated that the company has committed to challenge it.

Threads, the social media platform owned by Meta, is gaining traction with a surge in daily active users, outpacing X in the U.S.

With Threads averaging 28 million daily active users compared to X’s 22 million, Meta’s ambitions to reach a billion users seem within reach despite a slowdown in growth. While X still boasts 550 million monthly active users globally, Threads’ focus on user experience and avoidance of real-time and political content could position it as a formidable competitor moving forward.
