The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and U.S. State Department have each downgraded their travel advisories for Canada, which recently began allowing vaccinated American tourists to cross its borders.
The State Department moved the country from level 3, “reconsider travel,” to level 2, “exercise increased caution,” on Tuesday. The CDC also moved the country from level 3, indicating a high level of COVID-19, to level 2, a moderate level, this week.
The State Department says travelers heading to level 2 countries should “be aware of heightened risks to safety and security.” The CDC advises travelers to make sure they are fully vaccinated and warns that unvaccinated travelers at an increased risk for severe illness from COVID-19 should avoid nonessential travel to level 2 destinations.
