: Immigration Law Answers Blog2009-H1N1 Influenza Travel Alert No Longer in Effect
By Robert Kraft
As of May 15, 2009, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) lifted its recommendation that all American citizens avoid nonessential travel to Mexico. Because this recommendation was lifted, the U.S. Department of State has announced that the Department's travel alert relating to the 2009-H1N1 influenza outbreak is no longer in effect.
While the travel alert is no longer in effect, the CDC still recommends that travelers and U.S. citizens living in Mexico (especially those at high risk for complications of influenza) should take precautions to reduce their risks of infection while in Mexico. Further, the CDC continues to recommend travelers take protective measures if they must travel to an area where there are reported cases of 2009-H1N1 influenza, and also outlines additional measures that travelers returning from such areas should exercise to limit the spread of 2009-H1N1.
More information is available at: http://www.travel.state.gov, and at: http://www.cdc.gov/travel.
