CDC REVISES COVID-19 TRAVEL ADVICE
September 14, 2020
The Center for Disease Control (CDC) has revised the “After You Travel” section of its COVID-19 travel advice website. Since March, the CDC has recommended that all individuals traveling internationally, or individuals traveling domestically to states with high incidence rates of COVID-19, quarantine for 14 days following that travel. However, CDC is no longer recommending a 14-day quarantine for this type of travel, instead, CDC is recommending that travelers watch for symptoms, social distance, wear masks, and wash their hands. However, the CDC does provide more specific after travel advice on the webpage it maintains for each country. For those countries that the CDC designates as a high-risk country, the CDC also additionally recommend that individuals stay home as much as possible, avoid being around individuals at high risk for serious illness from COVID-19, and to consider getting tested for COVID-19.
