This included the opinion that travelers into India should only be allowed if they had a "coronavirus free" certificate from the country of departure or boarding port. With the outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19) in late 2019, countries across the world have implemented entry restrictions, quarantine measures and travel advisories to help contain the virus. As of March 13, 2020, the Indian government suspended existing visas with exceptions until April 15, 2020.

The Response2covid19 dataset tracks governments’ responses to COVID-19 all around the world. The dataset is at the country-level and covers the January-October 2020 period; it is updated on a monthly basis. It tracks 20 measures – 13 public health measures and 7 economic measures – taken by 228 governments. The tracking of the measures allows creating an index of the rigidity of public health measures and an index of economic response to the pandemic. The objective of the dataset is both to inform citizens and to help researchers and governments in fighting the pandemic.The dataset can be downloaded and used freely. Please properly cite the name of the dataset (“Governments’ Responses to COVID-19 (Response2covid19)”) and the reference: Porcher, Simon "A novel dataset of governments' responses to COVID-19 all around the world", Chaire EPPP 2020-03 discussion paper, 2020.

Some locations, known as Test to Treat sites, give you the option to get tested, get assessed by a healthcare provider, and receive treatment – all in one visit. COVID-19 medications may be available at additional locations that are not shown in this dataset.

Sites that have not reported in the last two weeks display a notification, "Inventory has not been reported in the last 2 weeks. Please contact the provider to make sure the product is available." Outpatient COVID-19 medications may be available at additional locations not listed on this website. All therapeutics identified in the locator not approved by the FDA must be used in alignment with the terms of the respective product’s Emergency Use Authorization.

TwitterThis public use dataset has 11 data elements reflecting COVID-19 community levels for all available counties. This dataset contains the same values used to display information available at https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/science/community-levels-county-map.html. CDC looks at the combination of three metrics — new COVID-19 admissions per 100,000 population in the past 7 days, the percent of staffed inpatient beds occupied by COVID-19 patients, and total new COVID-19 cases per 100,000 population in the past 7 days — to determine the COVID-19 community level. The COVID-19 community level is determined by the higher of the new admissions and inpatient beds metrics, based on the current level of new cases per 100,000 population in the past 7 days. New COVID-19 admissions and the percent of staffed inpatient beds occupied represent the current potential for strain on the health system. Data on new cases acts as an early warning indicator of potential increases in health system strain in the event of a COVID-19 surge. Using these data, the COVID-19 community level is classified as low, medium , or high. COVID-19 Community Levels can help communities and individuals make decisions based on their local context and their unique needs. Community vaccination coverage and other local information, like early alerts from surveillance, such as through wastewater or the number of emergency department visits for COVID-19, when available, can also inform decision making for health officials and individuals. See https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/science/community-levels.html for more information. Visit CDC’s COVID Data Tracker County View* to learn more about the individual metrics used for CDC’s COVID-19 community level in your county. Please note that county-level data are not available for territories. Go to https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#county-view. For the most accurate and up-to-date data for any county or state, visit the relevant health department website. *COVID Data Tracker may display data that differ from state and local websites. This can be due to differences in how data were collected, how metrics were calculated, or the timing of web updates.
