The US State Department has upgraded its travel advisory for Kenya from Level 2 to Level 3, warning travellers to reconsider travel due to risks including kidnapping, terrorism, protests, and an increased threat from Ebola with limited medical services.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

The travel risks in Kenya have sharply increased, forcing you to rethink any plans that expose your team or customers to the region. Delay launches or partnerships depending on personnel travel to Kenya until the situation stabilises or alternative arrangements are secured.
