These are level 1, which indicates that Americans should take precautions; level 2, to increase preventive measures; level 3, which means a high level of risk to travel, to reconsider; and level 4, not to travel to that country.

In the case of the Dominican Republic, it was at level 4, and on the 14th of this month, it was downgraded to level 3.
