WASHINGTON — The United States has upgraded its travel warnings for Britain, Indonesia and three other destinations, advising Americans not to travel there due to a surge in coronavirus cases. The CDC and the State Department issued revised advice to U.S. travelers Monday alerting them to the increased risk of contracting COVID-19 in Britain, Indonesia, Zimbabwe, Fiji and the British Virgin Islands. Mississippi has one of the lowest coronavirus vaccination rates in the nation. State data also show that Kansas averaged 440 new COVID-19 cases for the seven days ending Monday. The congressman’s announcement comes amid a sharp rise in COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations in Florida and around the country.
