Worried about traveling with unvaccinated kids? 6 questions answered on how to manage the risks
CNN
Parents face tough choices since young kids can't yet get COVID-19 vaccinations. An infectious diseases expert offers guidance on navigating summer activities.
(CNN) — Across the US, Covid-19 cases are rising again, primarily in unvaccinated populations. Most of these cases are due to the highly infectious delta variant of SARS-Cov-2, the coronavirus that causes Covid-19. Many children are among those who aren't vaccinated, simply because no vaccines have been authorized for children under 12. About a quarter of children aged 12-15 years have been vaccinated. Given the rise in cases and the inability to vaccinate young children, many parents are concerned about the safety of traveling this summer. The risk of Covid-19 associated with travel is largely determined by how you will travel, where you're going, who will be there and what you will do there. By assessing these variables, parents can make informed decisions about their travel plans.More Related News
