Trump suggests U.S. could soon lift coronavirus travel ban on countries that are 'making progress'

'Where they're making progress we'll start to open it up,' President Donald Trump said on Tuesday.

On Tuesday, the U.S. government also imposed a new travel ban on Brazil, barring people who have been in the country within 14 days of seeking entry into the U.S. from entering America.

Trump did not expand on which countries might see travel restrictions lifted. He also did not provide any guarantee that restrictions would be lifted or provide any timeline for potential changes. "I think we're making very good progress. We're making very good progress on the economy. The numbers are better than anybody would have anticipated," the president said."And certainly, I think that's been reflected in the stock market, which had a very big day."
