The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has added Italy to its highest-risk category in its latest travel advisory issued on 13 December.
The CDC has placed Italy in the ‘Level 4: Covid-19 Very High’ category, along with more than 80 other countries, many of them in Europe.
Advising US travelers to avoid going to Italy, the CDC warns that “if you must travel, make sure you are fully vaccinated” before traveling.
US has recently lifted travel restrictions for fully vaccinated and covid-tested air travelers from Italy last month, ending a travel ban in place for a year and a half.
