As the nation continues to reopen after the COVID-19 pandemic, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has been slowly lifting some of the travel restrictions that were put in place to help prevent the spread of the virus. The most recent change was the lifting of the requirement that all air passengers entering the United States from another country must test negative for the virus before they are allowed to board their flight. <\/p>\n

Now, the CDC is considering lifting another travel restriction: the recommendation that all Americans avoid non-essential travel. This recommendation has been in place since early in the pandemic, and has been credited with helping to keep infection rates low in the United States. <\/p>\n

Lifting this recommendation would be a major step towards returning to normalcy, and would signal that the CDC believes that the risk of contracting COVID-19 while traveling is low enough that it is no longer necessary to avoid non-essential travel.<\/p>\n

There is no one-size-fits-all answer to this question, as the CDC will consider a variety of factors when making its decision. These factors may include the current state of the pandemic, the effectiveness of vaccine rollout, and advice from other health experts.<\/p>\n

When will CDC travel restrictions be lifted? <\/h2>\n
