The dangerous coronavirus continues to spread around the world, and people traveling these days need to be aware of how to protect their own health on the go.
The disease has spread to tourist destinations like Shanghai Disneyland, which has already closed its doors in an effort by authorities to stem the outbreak, and airlines around the world are increasing precautions to keep travelers as safe as possible.
Although the risk at the US airports is relatively low at the moment , no precautions are necessary, especially in the most international ones. Passengers from China to these five airports: San Francisco International, John F. Kennedy in New York, O'hare in Chicago and Hartsfield-Jackson in Atlanta, will be screened upon arrival to ensure they do not carry the virus.
However, in principle, domestic flights should not be a problem at the moment for travelers, Dr. William Schaffner, a professor at Vanderbilt University in the department of infectious diseases, assured Anglo-Saxon People.
As for people who are thinking about traveling to China these days, the State Department issued several alerts that advise against traveling to the country, more specifically to the affected area, unless it is strictly necessary.
If you were to travel to Wuhan, the area where the dangerous virus originated, the CDC urges you to avoid contact with sick people, stay away from animals, and wash your hands very often with soap. In the elderly, the danger becomes even more acute, so be very careful.
Currently, there are no vaccines that can prevent the transmission of the coronavirus.
