The Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued a travel warning for Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone. This Level 3 warning is due to the increasing risk and spread of the Ebola virus in the region.
“This is the biggest and most complex Ebola outbreak in
history. Far too many lives have been lost already,” said CDC Director Tom
Frieden, M.D., M.P.H. “It will take many months, and it won’t be easy, but
Ebola can be stopped. We know what needs to be done. CDC is surging our
response, sending 50 additional disease control experts to the region in the
next 30 days.”. The warning is to avoid all non-essential travel to the region and take extra measures of precaution such as screening travelers to avoid the spread of the disease. www.premieretravel.com
