This market will resolve to "Yes" if the CDC issues a Level 3 (“Reconsider Nonessential Travel”) Travel Health Notice for any disease by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". A Level 3 notice listed for any amount of time during this market’s timeframe will suffice for a "Yes" resolution. The primary resolution source for this market will be the CDC’s official Travel Health Notices page (https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/travel/notices); however, a consensus of credible reporting will also be used.Trader consensus on Polymarket assigns a 58.5% implied probability to "No" for the CDC issuing a Level 3 Travel Health Notice—recommending travelers reconsider nonessential travel due to any disease—by December 31, 2026, reflecting the agency's current absence of such alerts amid stable epidemiological trends. As of early April 2026, CDC reports no Level 3 notices active, with recent Level 2 precautions limited to polio in 32 countries, meningococcal disease in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and isolated vector-borne threats like yellow fever in Venezuela; U.S. measles cases exceed 1,700 in 17 outbreaks, but global surveillance maintains a Level 1 notice emphasizing vaccination. Declining flu activity per FluView and no sustained human-to-human bird flu or mpox transmission further dampen escalation risks, though weekly CDC updates and emerging case clusters could shift odds.
