Unaccompanied noncitizen children, already excepted under a July 16, 2021 order, remain excepted from the order's coverage. In addition, CDC is continuing an exception for individuals on a case-by-case basis, based on the totality of the circumstances, and is incorporating an additional exception for programs approved by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) that incorporate appropriate COVID-19 mitigation protocols as recommended by CDC.
