Romania is among the three travel destinations to receive a Level 3, 'Covid-19 high' designation this week from the US CDC. The other two are Romania's smaller, wine-making neighbor Moldova and sparsely populated St. Pierre and Miquelon.
To be listed as"Level 1: Covid-19 Low," a destination must have had 49 or fewer new cases per 100,000 residents over the past 28 days.There are almost 30 places in the"low" risk category this week. A couple of the more popular places in the"low" risk category this week include Egypt and Tanzania.Finally, there are the destinations the CDC has deemed to be of"unknown" risk because of a lack of information.
There are nearly 65 places listed as"unknown" this week, making up more than one-quarter of all the places monitored.Transmission rates are just"one guidepost" for travelers' personal risk calculations, according to CNN Medical Analyst Dr. Leana Wen.
