Risk Indicators
Italy - Level 2: Exercise Increased Caution
What does this mean?›
Government advisories are the highest-weighted signal (50%) because they already absorb granular crime, terrorism, kidnapping and political-stability intelligence. A Level 2 (Increased Caution) advisory means there are localised risks — usually petty crime, occasional protests, or health concerns — but most travellers visit without incident.
- Level 1
- Normal precautions
- Level 2
- Increased caution
- Level 3
- Reconsider travel
- Level 4
- Do not travel

- WHO DON keyword matches (ebola, mpox, cholera…)
- PM2.5
- WHO safe limit 5 µg/m³ · penalty > 35
- Life exp.
- Long-run health context
