Monday marked the third day in a row where more than one million people were screened at security checkpoints in airports across the county. As the number of travelers increases over the holidays, the Centers for Disease Control and Protection has issued new guidance for those traveling during the pandemic.
The CDC is now suggesting people stay home over the Christmas and New Year’s holidays.

For those who will continue with their travel plans, officials suggest getting two COVID tests. The CDC says to get one a few days before your trip starts and another a few days after it is over.
The new guidance comes after the Transportation Security Administration recorded the highest number of travelers since the COVID-19 pandemic started in March.
