Similarly, many states still have limits on the capacity of event venues. Large-scale indoor events are generally not banned in most places, but are limited to hundreds at most in many states.

Only a few states have inspection and quarantine requirements

When the 2020 limit culminated, many states were implementing quarantine requirements for out-of-state travelers. Most of these have been withdrawn at this time, with a few exceptions. However, in general, vaccinated domestic travelers no longer need to be quarantined when traveling across state borders.

There are two exceptions here. If you have recently traveled to another country, especially one with a high number of cases, you may need a negative COVID-19 test, and some states may require quarantine. In addition, most places recommend self-quarantine if you have coronavirus symptoms.
