    As of March 1 (9:00 am EST), Italy is only at Level 3 per the CDC web-page. Only two areas (Lombardy and Veneto) have been raised to Level 4. Although the situation is rapidly changing, in my view, there is a lot of unnecessary panicking and misinformation about. I was scheduled on a trip in April to China, which Road Scholar cancelled for all trips in the first part of the year, and I have now rescheduled the trip to China for later.

    While I do not have any plans for Italy this year, I have a lot of other international travel booked for this year - with Road Scholar and others. If you don't want to travel due to fears, then cancel -- this is why it is good to purchase the Cancel for Any Reason Insurance. However, I think that there is a lot of unreasonable fears and over-reaction happening. From what I'm reading, the virus is appearing just about everywhere. I don't want to live my life limited to my home, constrained by fears.

    I have completed about 10 international trips with Road Scholar (plus more with other travel providers). They are very good, responsible providers (particularly compared to another I've used). It would be great if they just avoided the Level 4 areas in Italy and still visit Italy. This would have been my preferred option for the China trip I was scheduled on, but was not feasible.

    This is just my view, but I worry that there is a silent majority who still want to travel, while the vocal group is trying to cancel trips. Bottom-line if you don't want to go, just cancel which allows those wish to maintain their travel plans to do so.

    What do you think of the situation now? People in Italy did not over-react and see where they are now
