Trump: We can’t let people with coronavirus come to US

 

United States President Donald Trump said on Sunday that the US “pretty much shut down” all travel from China to prevent more cases of the coronavirus coming to the country. “We’ve offered China help. But we can’t have thousands of people coming in who may have this problem, the coronavirus,” Trump stated in an interview with Fox ahead of the Super Bowl. On Friday, US Health Secretary Alex Azar declared a national health emergency over the deadly virus which originated in China with cases also reported in other countries, including the US. Azar also stressed that the US will block all foreign nationals who have been to China in the past 14 days from entering the US.
