The Foreign Office has issued a travel update for Mexico, the USA and Canada ahead of the World Cup over the recent Ebola outbreak in parts of Africa.
The World Cup is set to get underway on June 11, when Mexico kick off against South Africa.
In an update, the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) wrote: "As a public health measure, the United States has introduced temporary entry restrictions for travellers who were recently in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Uganda or South Sudan."
The FCDO recommended that travellers from Ebola-affected areas consult their airline before travelling and remain vigilant for symptoms within 21 days after leaving the country.

England's World Cup campaign begins against Croatia in Dallas on June 17, with Tuchel's men placed in Group L for the tournament's opening phase.
The German coach has pledged to secure a second star for the England shirt, 60 years after the Three Lions first.
Should everything go to plan, the Three Lions' journey would conclude in New Jersey on July 19, finally bringing an end to six decades of waiting for international football's ultimate prize.
Tuchel would become only the second manager, after Sir Alf Ramsey, to deliver World Cup glory for England, although the logistical challenges of this tournament make it particularly demanding.

The German manager, whose agent once told him his nationality would prevent him from taking the England job, laid out his vision when first meeting the players in March 2025.
Footage from a Football Association documentary captured Tuchel presenting a chart labelled Mount Everest Summit during a team meeting.
He told his squad: "I want to arrive here at the top, with the toughest group in the world.
"When we arrive on the plane and land, we will already know that this will be a great camp and this will be a team no one wants to play against.
"And they will feel it in the mixed zone, they will feel it in the tunnel, they will smell it."
