On Jan. 31, after the World Health Organization declared a global health emergency from the coronavirus, President Trump instituted screening and travel restrictions from China to slow the spread of the virus that may have a higher than 2 percent mortality rate, although the World Health Organization has a 1.5 percent mortality rate outside of China and a 3.4 percent rate inside of China. With such a high mortality rate, containment is critical. In the U.S., so far there have been 60 cases with no deaths. And to keep it that way, the President may be considering expanding the travel restrictions to other countries with outbreaks like South Korea and Italy. “[I]f others aren’t taking care or we think they’re doing it incorrectly… At a right time, we may do that,” President Trump said on Feb. 26 at the White House from a reporter asking if the U.S. would institute additional screening and travel restrictions on South Korea and northern Italy, which have been hit with the Chinese coronavirus. Do you support the President’s travel restrictions to slow down the virus?
