Mask signage And with many kids returning to school and the fact that there still isn’t a vaccine available for kids under 12 years old, the CDC is concerned about travel this Labor Day weekend. They’ve recommended that unvaccinated people not travel at all, and vaccinated people should consider the risks before doing so. According to CNN Health, “the director of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is asking unvaccinated Americans not to travel during the Labor Day holiday weekend.” They also advised vaccinated people to “take precautions” with their travel and consider canceling travel plans.

According to Johns Hopkins University, the U.S. is seeing an average of more than 160,000 new COVID cases each day. About 40% of Americans ages 12 and older are still not vaccinated yet, which the CDC says may contribute to this rise in cases.
