Are restrictions on travel within the United States coming soon?

Vice President Mike Pence on Sunday credited China travel restrictions as a big factor in helping avoid a Europe-like spread of coronavirus in the United States.

At the same White House briefing, Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, praised the impact of travel restrictions, the latest of which cover Europe, and beginning Monday night, the United Kingdom and Ireland.

The endorsements beg the question: are restrictions on travel within the United States next?

So far, government officials have only said a domestic travel ban is under consideration, a position they reiterated Sunday.

that’s why Fauci is supporting them. In his entire presidency, Trump only did one thing right, imposing China travel ban early on. This was Fauci recommendation and it is likely why we are not Italy (yet).
