First thing this morning, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) lifted its travel warning to Mexico, which had been in place for the past few weeks.
The CDC’s Travel Health Warning has been in effect since April 27 and has now been downgraded to a Travel Health Precaution for Mexico, which simply means travel to Mexico should come with all the same precautions as before: vaccinations, antibiotics and careful travel.
The CDC recommends that travelers at high risk for flu complications avoid Mexico travel including:
– Children less than 5 years old
– Persons aged 65 years or older
– Pregnant women
– Residents of nursing homes and other chronic-care facilities
If you’re traveling internationally, make sure to keep yourself abreast of all travel advisories by checking the CDC, TSA and FAA for any travel advisories.
