President Donald Trump said on Saturday that he would issue a travel warning for the hard-hit New York area to limit the spread of the coronavirus, backing off from an earlier suggestion that he might try to cut off the region entirely.Trump's announcement came as the U.S. death count crossed 2,100, more than double the level from two days ago.
Critics promptly called the idea unworkable, saying it would cause chaos in a region that serves as the economic engine of the eastern United States, accounting for 10 percent of the population and 12 percent of GDP."If you started walling off areas all across the country it would be totally bizarre, counter-productive, anti-American," New York Governor Andrew Cuomo said on CNN.
On Saturday, Trump appeared to soften his previous comments calling for the U.S. economy to be reopened by mid-April."We'll see what happens," he said.
