This does not imply a reassessment of the current health situation in a given country, but rather reflects an adjustment in the State Department\u2019s Travel Advisory system to rely more on CDC\u2019s existing epidemiological assessments.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In a massive <a href=\"https:\/\/travel.state.gov\/content\/travel\/en\/traveladvisories\/traveladvisories.html\/\">list<\/a>, the State Department declares dozens of nations \u201cDo Not Travel,\u201d \u201cReconsider Travel,\u201d and \u201cExercise Increased Caution.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs always, we are closely monitoring conditions around the globe, and will regularly update our destination-specific advice to U.S. travelers as conditions evolve,\u201d the department said.<\/p>\n<p>Already, at least 34 out of about 200 countries are listed as \u201cDo Not Travel,\u201d the department\u2019s highest warning. Among them are Argentina, Brazil, Haiti, Kenya and Russia. To get to 80%, that would mean another 130 countries added to the list.<\/p>\n<p>The State Department announcement comes a day after the Biden administration declared that Americans age 16 or older are eligible to get the COVID-19 vaccine.<\/p>\n<p>The CDC, meanwhile, estimates that some 131 million people \u2013 half of U.S. adults \u2013 have already been inoculated with at least one dose of the vaccine. In addition, the U.S. is administering more than 3 million doses daily.<\/p>\n<p>President Joe Biden had pushed to make all Americans eligible by April 19, a milestone he met. \u201cFor months I\u2019ve been telling Americans to get vaccinated when it\u2019s your turn. Well, it\u2019s your turn, now,\u201d\u00a0Biden said Sunday on a program called \u201cRoll Up Your Sleeves\u201d\u00a0on NBC. \u201cIt\u2019s free. It\u2019s convenient and it\u2019s the most important thing you can do to protect yourself from Covid-19.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But the good numbers follow a setback for the vaccine process. Last week, The CDC and the Food and Drug Administration recommended a temporary pause in administering the Johnson &#038; Johnson vaccine due to reports that several people suffered blood clots after receiving the vaccination.<\/p>\n<p>The nation\u2019s top immunologist said that has resulted in a loss of confidence in vaccines.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne of the most important reasons why people have hesitancy is they\u2019re concerned about the safety. The very fact that you have an organization, two organizations, the CDC and the FDA, looking so carefully at this, making safety the primary concern, in my mind, confirms or underscores the situation that we take safety very seriously,\u201d said Anthony Fauci, the nation\u2019s leading infectious disease doctor following the pause.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
