President Trump announced Wednesday that he was ordering a suspension of travel to the United States from Europe for a period of 30 days in an effort to stem the spread of coronavirus.
“The European Union failed to take the same precautions and restrict travel from China and other hot spots. As a result, a large number of new clusters in the United States were seeded by travelers from Europe,” Trump said. “This is the most aggressive and comprehensive effort to confront a foreign virus in modern history,” Trump said, adding that his administration was responding with “great speed and professionalism.”
