The U.S. told American citizens in India to leave the country immediately, as the COVID-19 crisis in the country deepens.

The State Department issued a Level 4 travel advisory Wednesday after the department approved the voluntary departure of family members of government employees. A Level 4 advisory warns U.S. citizens "do not travel" to the country in question, usually due to "life-threatening risks."

The advisory indicates a "very high level" of COVID-19 in the country, and the government has limited ability to provide emergency services to U.S. citizens in "rural areas," the department said. 

"U.S. citizens are reportedly being denied admittance to hospitals due to the lack of space and resources," an alert on the State Department website read.
