The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has raised its travel warning level for seven destinations, including Switzerland and Puerto Rico, to its highest risk designation.<\/p>\n
Switzerland and Puerto Rico, along with Azerbaijan, Estonia, Guam, North Macedonia and St. Lucia, are now on the CDC’s Level 4 list, indicating “very high” Covid-19 risk and for U.S. residents to avoid travel to those destinations. About 80 destinations in total currently are rated Level 4 by the CDC.<\/p>\n
The CDC also has raised its warning level for travel to four destinations — Canada, Germany, Bermuda and Moldova — to Level 3, indicating “high” Covid-19 risk that unvaccinated travelers should avoid. Those destinations previously had been designated Level 2, indicating “moderate” risk.<\/p>\n
In addition, the CDC moved Indonesia, Bahrain, Oman, Namibia, Rwanda and Zimbabwe down to Level 3 from Level 4.<\/p>\n
