What is the disease? It is a very contagious and serious infectious disease caused by a virus of the paramyxovirus family. It is usually transmitted through direct contact and through the air either by contact with nasal, mouth or throat fluids of an infected person.
It is a live attenuated virus vaccine that generates protection against the four serotypes of the disease (DENV-1 to DENV-4).

The initial mandate allowed those who were fully vaccinated to show proof of a negative test within three days prior to travel, while unvaccinated individuals had to present a test performed within one day prior to travel.

The case of Mexico is the best known. Mexico never closed its borders, not even when the pandemic began. In addition, entry into the country has never been conditioned by any restrictions. Mexico does not require PCR testing or quarantine for travelers entering its territory. This has made the country one of the world’s favorite destinations, even for tourists from the United States.

To enter Ecuador you must present a negative PCR test. You have the option to take the test at the airport, but in this case you will be quarantined until you receive the results.

The Ministry of Health also recommended Paraguayan citizens to avoid traveling to these countries and any other country where the omicron variant has been detected until more information is available.
The Panamanian Minister of Health informed on Saturday that they will issue a resolution establishing the countries that already have community contagion and that if President Cortizo approves it, they would be classified as very high risk.
Lasso announced a series of measures to prevent the spread, including a ban on the entry of people coming from a list of African countries, either as their country of origin, or coming from a stopover or transit through those countries.
