WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on Tuesday advised Americans against travel to Niger, Papua New Guinea, Poland, and Trinidad and Tobago, citing COVID-19 concerns.
On Saturday, the CDC added seven southern African countries to its “Level 4: Very High” classification after the White House announced new travel restrictions in response to the new Omicron coronavirus variant.
