U.S Travellers Told to Avoid Thailand Due to Very High Levels of COVID-19

The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) warned US Citizens on Monday against travel to Thailand, France, Israel, Iceland and several other countries because of a rising number of Covid-19 cases in those nations.

The CDC has been adding to its highest “Level 4: Very High” Covid-19 level as cases spread around the globe. The United States added Thailand, Israel, the West Bank and Gaza, along with other places, including Aruba and French Polynesia.

“Because of the current situation in Thailand, even fully vaccinated travellers may be at risk for getting and spreading Covid-19 variants,” the CDC said on its website.

The list comprises more than 70 countries, including three other Southeast Asian countries — Indonesia, Malaysia and Myanmar.
