Coronavirus outbreak has become the talk of the century with the virus claiming thousands of lives and infecting millions of people till date. More than half of the countries on the world map are suffering from the Nobel Coronavirus outbreak, and it seems to be spreading further with days. People have locked themselves in their own houses and have stopped travelling outside their countries for safety reasons. Read less
However, in the middle of all the negative news that we have been reading and hearing about the situation, there are virus-free countries too. There are several destinations where (as of now) ‘no positive coronavirus cases have been reported yet’, though the situation can change any moment or second. Thus, a last-minute check is advised before you make any travel plans.
If right measures and precautions are taken, travellers can plan their trip (though it’s advised to not undertake any non-essential travel) to the following destinations.
In Europe: Islands of Santorini and Mykonos in Greece
In Africa: Cape Verde or Republic of Cabo Verde
No case of the virus has been reported (yet) from the Republic of Cabo Verde, off the West African coast. The Coronavirus has not spread to these island regions.
In Asia: Bali
In Southeast Asia: Laos and Myanmar
Till now, Laos and Myanmar in South-East Asia have remained unaffected by the virus outbreak. Still, it is advised to exercise caution, given the destinations’ geographical closeness to countries such as China and South Korea where coronavirus is at its peak.
Disclaimer: It is advised to put all non-essential travel for now. The article is based on the destinations where no Coronavirus cases have been reported yet.
