The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and State Department this week issued travel alerts for Germany and Denmark due to COVID-19.

The two European Union nations were placed by CDC in its Level 4 category, saying there is a “very high” chance of contracting COVID-19, the illness caused by the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus.
