The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has added St Kitts and Nevis to its lowest-risk category for travel during the pandemic.

While some regions around the world, including much of Europe, remain at the CDC’s highest travel risk, which is Level 4, St. Kitts and Nevis have gained the confidence of the CDC and the reputation of a country that has successfully managed the dreaded COVID-19 pandemic, which has wreaked havoc on economies and livelihoods globally.
With an enviably high vaccination rate of 83 percent of the adult population receiving a first dose and 78 percent fully vaccinated, it is one of the highest in the Caribbean. At present, there are only five active cases. The country has recorded 43 deaths.
Non-nationals travelling to St Kitts and Nevis must be fully vaccinated and follow all COVID-19 regulations for entering the country. Nationals entering the country who are not vaccinated must spend seven days in quarantine.
The managed approach utilized by the government of St Kitts and Nevis helped the twin-island country overcome the challenges caused by the pandemic. The health ministry made sure that a larger number of individuals, including children over 12 years old, get their coronavirus vaccines.
With higher rates of vaccination and less number of infections recorded in recent weeks, St Kitts and Nevis is certainly among the safest places to vacation in to remain safe from the virus.
Many places around the world are still struggling to contain the virus, such as Hong Kong, Shanghai are reporting a large number of new infections, and the health sector is completely overwhelmed. Many countries such as Germany, South Korea, Vietnam and Thailand are also experiencing a surge in the virus load.
