The Trump administration Saturday announced additional travel restrictions affecting Iran, Italy and South Korea in response to the coronavirus outbreak following the first death from the virus in the United States.
Vice President Pence said the existing travel ban on Iran would extend to foreign nationals who had been in that country the past 14 days. The State Department also is increasing its warning advising Americans not to travel to parts of Italy and South Korea affected by the virus.

We're all going to die!!!!
Oh good, we almost went 12 post without a coronavirus thread. I was getting worried it killed everyone that cared already.
Oh no! Its happening!!!
Somebody died!!!!!!! Nobody’s ever supposed to die. That monster, Trump.
Five count em, five authors to write the story the WaPos has been hoping to write we finally have a US citizen who has died from this. Did Drudge use the siren? I am not about to look.
That’s what you get for eating from the tree of knowledge.
Racist Trump hates Italians!!!
The ban does not apply to Kerry and Obama, they are encouraged to continue their unsanctioned shadow diplomacy with Iran.
My niece had to self quarantine in Germany yesterday. Two people at her Christian work conference tested positive.
More people have died from vending machines falling on them, than the Corona virus, in the US.
They have Christians in Germany?
People died from vending machines falling on them? And what has Trump done about that?
The market rallied a bit Friday
Heathrow (London) is still allowing flights from Iran.
Good luck with that.
5 left wing writers and nothing about the dead one?
Since CDC has not sent out diagnosis kits that work, how did these magnificent 5 know what he/she/it died from.

Instead of restrictions there should be bans to any country that has over 100 cases..and if someone goes to any of those countries, dont let them back in
Its probably the pasta LOL

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the Bring Out Your Dead ping list (formerly the Ebola ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the Bring Out Your Dead threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
If a quarantine saves just one child's life, it's worth it.
