The top US health body has issued a “Level One” COVID-19 notice for Americans travelling to India, saying the risk of contracting the infection and developing severe symptoms may be lower if one is fully vaccinated.

The new travel advisory issued on 15th November by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) of “Level One” which is considered safe came in the wake of the significant improvement in the Covid-19 situation in India.

The CDC in its health travel notice “Level One” said, “Your risk of contracting COVID-19 and developing severe symptoms may be lower if you are fully vaccinated with an FDA (Food and Drug Administration) authorised vaccine.”
