Safe to go on vacation? What doctors say about traveling during pandemic

GREENSBORO, N.C. — As Memorial Day and summer get closer, the phones are still ringing off the hook at travel agencies, whether it's for cancellations or bookings. 

"It’s about half and half. Fifty percent of the people, they’re ready to get out of the house. They are ready to go somewhere. They are ready to take vacation," said Imagine Travel agent Kaitlyn Nance. 

Nance said not everyone is in that same boat. Some people have postponed their trips for a later date.

"A majority of our cancellations have just been from the resorts being closed until they open back up again," Nance said. 

If you plan to go somewhere, Dr. Ashley Perrott, a physician with Novant Health, said there are steps you'll want to take to make sure you and your family are healthy.
