CDC Drops Travel Warning Levels on More Than 20 Countries

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has been on vacation for the last couple of weeks.

In the last two weeks, no country or territory has been added to the highest-risk level of the health agency.

The CDC considers a country a Level 4 risk if it has 500 or more confirmed cases of COVID-19 per 100,000 residents in a 28-day period.

Not only has the CDC not added any destinations to the Level 4 list, but the agency has also reduced the number of countries from 20 to 14.

Dropping from Level 4 to Level 3 were Antigua and Barbuda, Argentina, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belize, Canada, Grenada, Iran, Libya, Oman, Panama, Paraguay, Saint Lucia and Suriname.

South Africa, Eswatini, Iraq, and the Dominican Republic are now at Level 2, while Jamaica, Nepal, and Pakistan are at Level 1.

The CDC dropped its health notice for cruise ship travel last week.
