Coronavirus is Now a Public Health Emergency in the United States; Avoid Traveling to China

January 31, 2020 Leave a Comment

The Donald Trump administration declared the coronavirus outbreak to be a public health emergency in the United States on Friday, setting quarantines of Americans who have recently been to certain parts of China. USA Today reports:

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention officials said it was the first quarantine order issued by the federal government in over 50 years. Marty Cetron, director of CDC’s Division of Global Migration and Quarantine, said the last time a quarantine was used was in the 1960s for smallpox.

U.S. citizens who have been in China’s Hubei province during the past 14 days and are returning to the U.S. States will undergo health screenings and be monitored during mandatory quarantines of up to 14 days, officials said.

Alex Azar, secretary of Health and Human Services, also announced a temporary suspension of entry into the United States of foreign nationals who pose a risk for the transmission of the coronavirus.
