These are countries with more than 500 cases of coronavirus per 100,000 inhabitants in the last 28 days
Bulgaria and Norway are already in the last, fourth category, with a very high risk of travel due to the new coronavirus, in the list of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CCD) in the United States, CNN television reported, quoted by BTA.
The US Federal Health Agency made this decision yesterday. So far, both countries have been in the penultimate, third category (high risk).
The CCP warns of a very high risk of covid in Norway after most of the restrictive measures in the Scandinavian country were lifted over the weekend. By comparison, neighboring Sweden and Denmark remain in the third category.
Countries with more than 500 cases of coronavirus per 100,000 inhabitants in the last 28 days fall into the fourth category according to the CCP criteria. At the moment, this applies to nearly 90 countries.
The U.S. Department of Health Agency advises Americans not to go to Category 4 countries. Those who still have to travel to such a country are advised to first be fully vaccinated against covid, CNN television notes.
The third category includes countries with between 100 and 500 cases of coronavirus per 100 thousand inhabitants in the last 28 days. The CCPP included six destinations – Bangladesh, Equatorial Guinea, Panama, Saint Barthelemy (French overseas territory in the Caribbean), Singapore and Slovakia.
So far, Bangladesh, Panama and Saint Barthelemy have been in the last, fourth category – that is, according to the US Health Agency, the epidemic situation there is improving. On the other hand, Singapore and Slovakia were in the second category (moderate risk, with between 50 and 99 cases per 100,000 inhabitants in the last 28 days), and Equatorial Guinea was even in the first (low risk).
The CCP generally recommends that Americans not travel abroad unless they are fully vaccinated. However, she warns that even fully vaccinated people may be at higher risk of becoming infected and possibly spreading some variants of covid, CNN television notes.
