Mary E. Wilson, Lin H. Chen
Abstract
Travel, a major contributor to global economy, needs to adapt to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Restarting business and travel share convergent considerations. Travel health preparation will require detailed assessment to specifically address COVID-19: the individual’s personal risk stratification, elements of travel and policies imposed on each traveller and itinerary. Precise details of the trip will help to formulate beneficial recommendations.
