The US Department of State issued a level 4 alert for the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), South Sudan, or Uganda, urging Americans not to travel to either of these countries for any reason, considering the Ebola outbreak. For Rwanda, the department issued a level 3 alert asking Americans to reconsider traveling. The travel alerts are in response to the CDC and WHO's declaration on recent Ebola outbreak.
"Medical services in South Sudan are extremely limited. Adequate medical treatment, as well as access to routine an emergency procedures, is often unavailable, and even minor health issues could require medical evacuation. All medical services, including medical evacuation, are at your expense. If you purchase additional medical insurance, be sure to keep records of all medical services paid for and provided," the US Department wrote in the advisory for South Sudan.
