The U.S. State Department has issued a Level 3 Travel Advisory to Trinidad and Tobago, urging Americans to "reconsider travel" due to crime and terrorism risks. The advisory also issued a lesser "exercise increased caution advisory" due due to health risks. Despite this, there are no curfews or restrictions on public gatherings at this time.
