The Transportation Security Administration screened more than three million people over the weekend, despite advisement from health officials not to travel.

Last week, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention urged people not to travel for Thanksgiving, citing fears that holiday celebrations could further spread the coronavirus amid a sharp rise in cases, hospitalizations, and deaths. Despite the advisory, the number of travelers on Friday and Sunday eclipsed 1 million people for only the second and third times since mid-March.
