In this video, I look at four recent travel notices issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Travel notices that were issued include: Ethiopia due to the Chikungunya outbreak, Nigeria as they battle a yellow fever outbreak, polio in the Philippines and the large extensively drug-resistant (XDR) typhoid fever outbreak in Pakistan.
I discuss the outbreaks and what the CDC recommends concerning protecting yourself if you are traveling to any of these four countries.
