6 more countries placed under ‘high’ risk category for travel by CDC


July 28 ------ Six more places were added by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to the “high” risk category for travel.


Among the destinations that received a Level 3 “high” risk designation includes Bangladesh, Bosnia and Herzegovina, El Salvador, Fiji, Honduras, and Poland. Places under Level 3 means it has more than 100 new cases over the past 28 days per 100,000 population. Meanwhile, places with moderate covid risk will be placed under Level 2 while those with low covid risk will be designated to Level 1.


CDC updated its Covid-19 Travel Health Notices last April 18, making the Level 3 as the highest risk category for travel. Originally the highest category, Level 4 is now for “special circumstances, such as rapidly escalating case trajectory or extremely high case counts, emergence of a new variant of concern, and healthcare infrastructure collapse.”
