New Travel Warnings From CDC #newtravelwarning #CDC #chilliescruises #whill_us #bolivia #chikungunya
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has issued a new Level 2 travel advisory for Bolivia due to the spread of chikungunya, a highly infectious mosquito-borne virus. Travelers are urged to “practice enhanced precautions,” including using EPA-registered insect repellent, wearing long sleeves and pants, and staying in accommodations with air conditioning or window and door screens. Chikungunya has caused outbreaks across Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe, and island regions in the Indian and Pacific Oceans. Symptoms can include fever and severe joint pain. Bolivia joins several other countries currently under CDC Level 2 advisories for chikungunya, including Seychelles and Suriname. The U.S. government has also issued virus-related Level 2 travel advisories for China, Kenya, Cuba, Madagascar, Somalia, and Sri Lanka. A Level 2 advisory does not recommend canceling travel but signals an increased health risk requiring additional precautions. Travelers are encouraged to monitor CDC updates and take protective measures to reduce mosquito exposure.
