Update - Covid-19 API deprecation - JSON samples
5 months ago by Riskline Team
We are going to deprecate the COVID-19 API and shut down the Covid-19 microsite in July 2024. Until then, the API will still be running and we will continue to maintain COVID-19 data. We strongly encourage our clients to migrate to Travel Search API by the end of Q2 2024 to receive up-to-date entry requirements, visa and health documentation. Please refer to this page to find the full list of changes. Find below the sample JSON for each API affected by the changes. Existing APIs will continue to be supported, however the Covid-related information in them will no longer be updated from July. Please note that the information in these samples should not be considered an official Riskline report.

"summary": "<p>France is a <strong>Moderate Risk</strong> destination: take normal safety precautions.</p><p><strong>Security: Moderate Risk:</strong> Moderate Risk locations are generally safe, with some predictable security risks. Travel is possible with an expectation of routine disruptions and delays.</p><p><strong>Political Instability: Moderate Risk:</strong> France is one of Europe’s biggest and most stable nations. It is a semi-presidential democracy with a long history of peaceful transfers of power, entrenched respect for civil rights and a strong economy. It is one of the founding nations of the European Union (EU), and it exerts a great deal of influence over world politics. However, political polarisation, particularly about what it means to be French, has increased in recent years as right-wing populism has gained traction across the country, undermining national unity to some degree.</p><p><strong>Conflict: Low Risk:</strong> France is not part of a direct conflict with other states. There are calls for independence in some of the overseas regions it continues to control, such as in <strong>New</strong> <strong>Caledonia</strong> and <strong>Corsica</strong>, but these calls for independence are unlikely to escalate into open conflict. France is a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) and a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO). It contributes to the US-led coalition against the Islamic State (IS).</p><p><strong>Terrorism: Moderate Risk:</strong> Due to France's active participation in military campaigns in Africa and the Middle East, the country is a target for Islamist attacks. It also has a large population of underprivileged Muslim immigrants, which has facilitated recruitment efforts for such groups, allowing them to conduct large-scale attacks. French security and intelligence services are highly trained, experienced and equipped to effectively prevent and respond to attacks.</p><p><strong>Unrest: Medium Risk:</strong> France experiences large-scale protests and strikes regularly across the country, particularly in <strong>Paris</strong>, where Yellow Vest anti-government demonstrators, anti-racism activists and labour unions hold weekly rallies. Police forces will often respond with tear gas and baton charges to disperse protests.</p><p><strong>Crime: Moderate Risk:</strong> France has relatively high crime rates compared with many European countries, and these rates have risen in recent years. Crime is most serious in the major urban centres, particularly in <strong>Paris</strong>, <strong>Marseille</strong>, <strong>Lyon</strong>, <strong>Lille</strong>, <strong>Bordeaux</strong> and <strong>Nantes</strong>. Petty theft is more common than serious crimes, such as carjacking and assault. The police and emergency services are very reliable.</p><p><strong>Natural and Environmental: Moderate Risk:</strong> The country is vulnerable to floods, avalanches and blizzards, which could disrupt overland, maritime and air travel, particularly in winter. Heat waves and wildfires can take place during the summer season. Damages and disruptions are, however, limited due to the country's excellent infrastructure and emergency response services. </p><p><strong>Health and Medical: Low Risk:</strong> The country has some of the best health facilities in the world, and hospitals across the country are highly equipped and staffed by medical professionals who are almost always multilingual. High-quality prescription drugs are widely available, and infectious diseases present little to no risk to travellers.</p><p><strong>Travel: Low Risk:</strong> The country has an excellent public transport network that includes boats, ferries, trains, subways, taxis and buses, which are reliable and safe. Air travel is widely available and safe. Vehicular travel is also recommended, as road conditions are excellent nationwide.</p>",
