Congo has reported more than 10,000 confirmed cases and about 4,930 deaths, and Kenya has confirmed nine cases. Starting with flights leaving after 11:59 p.m. ET tonight through Dec. 18, every passenger flying to the U.S., Americans included, must sign a statement that they haven't been in Congo in the past 21 days. CDC says the risk to Americans stays low.
