The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has added seven destinations, including France and Israel, to its list of areas with the highest risk of Covid-19 exposure. France and Israel, along with Aruba, Eswatini (formerly Swaziland), French Polynesia, Iceland and Thailand, now are among the nearly 80 destinations on the CDC's Level 4 list, designating "very high" Covid-19 risk. The CDC advises US residents to "avoid travel" to those destinations.
