The Coronavirus situation is constantly evolving. We recommend that you monitor the State Department for travel restrictions at travel.state.gov and check the CDC’s latest reports. These will help guide you to make the best decision based on your comfort level and travel plans. If you do travel in and around impacted countries, be prepared to follow the CDC recommendations for health screenings and quarantines. Whether traveling domestically or internationally, we encourage you to purchase travel insurance for an additional layer of protection.
