The Bahamas and Morocco are now between the greatest-risk places for travelers, according to the US Facilities for Condition Command and Prevention’s routinely revised vacation advisories checklist.

Folks really should steer clear of traveling to locations selected with the “Level 4: Covid-19 Very High” observe, the CDC recommends. Any individual who will have to travel must be entirely vaccinated first, the company advises.

6 locations moved to the Degree 4 checklist on August 23:

• Bahamas
• Haiti
• Kosovo
• Lebanon
• Morocco
• Sint Maarten

The CDC’s evolving record of journey notices ranges from Level 1 (“low”) to Degree 4 (“very high”).

Locations that slide into the “Covid-19 Pretty High” Level 4 classification have had more than 500 circumstances for every 100,000 citizens in the past 28 days, according to CDC criteria. The Degree 3 category applies to locations that have experienced in between 100 and 500 cases for each 100,000 residents in the earlier 28 days.

All 6 destinations recently extra to Stage 4 were previously rated at “Level 3: Covid-19 Substantial.”

The Bahamian prime minister carried out a pandemic curfew on Saturday, August 21, in place from 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. in mainland Exuma, Abaco and the Abaco Cays, and North, Central and South Andros. Amid the aftermath of the 7.2-magnitude earthquake that struck the southwest of Haiti August 14, the country’s primary minister reminded citizens to be conscious of Covid-19 danger through recovery endeavours.

New ‘Level 3’ locations

10 other destinations moved to the “Level 3: Covid-19 High” group on Monday. Albania, Bosnia, Herzegovina, Brunei and Liechtenstein moved up from degree one. Bulgaria and Serbia relocated from level two. Greenland and Guernsey improved from “level not known.” And Paraguay moved down from degree four.

CDC assistance for destinations on Level 3 urges unvaccinated travelers to stay away from nonessential vacation to those destinations.
