Washington, (Samajweekly) The White House announced on Sunday that the US has imposed travel restriction on Brazil, which has become the nation with the second-highest number of COVID-19 cases.
“Today, the President has taken decisive action to protect our country by suspending the entry of aliens who have been in Brazil during the 14-day period before seeking admittance to the United States,” the White House said in a statement, Xinhua reported.
The statement said the action would “help ensure foreign nationals who have been in Brazil do not become a source of additional infections in our country,” noting that this measure would not apply to the flow of commerce between the two countries.
