Dec 3, 20201:43Now PlayingThe U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Wednesday asked Americans to postpone holiday travel, citing virus risks and high travel volume during Thanksgiving last week, and put out new guidelines for how those who do travel can reduce the risk.
Travelers should consider getting tested one to three days beforehand as well as three to five days after. They should also avoid non-essential activities for a week after the trip, and 10 days if travelers don’t get tested, officials said.
“We know that it’s a hard decision and that people need to have time to prepare and have discussions with family and friends, and to make these decisions,” Cindy Friedman, chief of the CDC’s travelers’ health branch, said on Wednesday. “But our recommendations are trying to help give them the tools they need to make these tough choices.”
