Trump to suspend most travel from Europe to curb the spread of coronavirus
The president next laid out his plan for responding to the virus.
To protect the elderly, who have been particularly vulnerable to the disease, Trump said the government advised nursing homes to suspend “all medically unnecessary visits” and that older Americans should avoid non-essential travel. He also called for cancellations of large gatherings, saying, “Smart action today will prevent the spread of the virus tomorrow.”
This is in addition to measures he already announced earlier, including payroll tax relief, “cutting red tape” hindering the creation of antiviral medications and $8.3 billion funding for the CDC, vaccine research and equipment distribution. He then reiterated the same advice the CDC has been giving for self-protection: “Each of us has a role to play in defeating this virus. Wash your hands, clean often-used surfaces, cover your face and mouth if you sneeze or cough, and most of all, if you are sick or not feeling well, stay home.”
