said that non-essential travel between the U.S. and Mexico will be restricted because of the coronavirus pandemic.Pompeo said that the restrictions will not apply to cargo.
At the White House daily briefing on the coronavirus, Pompeo also warned of misinformation being spread about the virus, including reports of “lockdowns” in the U.S. and that the virus originated in the U.S. military. “Every American, including people all around the world, should ensure that where they turn for information is a reliable source and not a bad actor trying to create and flow information that they know is wrong,” Pompeo said.
Sitting among the press seats at the briefing was Sean Spicer, Trump’s former White House press secretary. He launched a new show for Newsmax this month. Their seat in the briefing room is shared with right wing news outlet One American News Network. Its chief White House correspondent, Chanel Rion, triggered an outcry among other reporters after she posed a question to President Donald Trump on Wednesday in which she claimed that the major left-wing news media, even in this room, have teamed up with Chinese communist party narratives” in their coverage of the coronavirus. She once reported on a conspiracy theory that the virus was created in a North Carolina lab.
