Recently, many tourists have been paying close attention to the topic "China has issued a new travel warning for the u.s". As a travel service company that truly cares about tourists and sincerely hopes to make travel to China affordable for ordinary people, Tour-to-China(T2C) also wants to report the real situation to everyone, to clarify what is actually going on, and to resolve the doubts in everyone's minds. Therefore, our company checked the source and relevant content of the information promptly. It is true that such a message is posted on the official website of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism of the People's Republic of China, with the content being only one sentence: "Recently, due to the deterioration of China-US economic and trade relations and the security situation in the United States, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism reminds Chinese tourists to fully assess the risks of traveling to the United States and to travel with caution."The release date is April 9, 2025.

The U.S. CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) also issued a travel advisory related to China on its official website on August 1, 2025. The reason for the advisory is the outbreak of chikungunya in China, and it is classified as Level 2-Practice Enhanced Precautions. Below is the original text covering the key points of this travel advisory.
Key points
● There is an outbreak of chikungunya in Guangdong Province, China. Most cases have been reported in Foshan city (see map).
● Mosquitoes spread the virus that causes chikungunya.
● You can protect yourself by preventing mosquito bites, which includes using insect repellent; wearing long-sleeved shirts and pants; and staying in places with air conditioning or that have screens on the windows and doors.
● Vaccination is recommended for travelers who are visiting an area with a chikungunya outbreak. Two chikungunya vaccines are approved for use in the United States.
● If you are pregnant, reconsider travel to the affected areas, particularly if you are close to delivering your baby. Mothers infected around the time of delivery can pass the virus to their baby before or during delivery. Newborns infected in this way or by a mosquito bite are at risk for severe illness, including poor long-term outcomes.
In general, vaccination against chikungunya should be deferred until after delivery. However, when the risk of infection is high and exposure cannot be avoided, pregnant travelers should discuss with their healthcare provider the potential risks (to themselves and their babies) of chikungunya virus infection and the potential benefits and risks of vaccination so that vaccination can be considered.
● Seek medical care immediately if you develop fever, joint pain, headache, muscle pain, joint swelling, or rash during or after travel.
