The White House<\/a> on Sunday announced that the U.S. would bar entry of non-citizens traveling from Brazil<\/a>, which has seen a sharp rise in coronavirus cases in previous weeks.<\/p>\n

The Trump administration \u201chas determined that the Federative Republic of Brazil\u00a0is experiencing widespread, ongoing person-to-person transmission\u201d of the virus, according to a White House statement. Brazil reported over 347,000 COVID-19 cases as of Friday, second behind the U.S. in the number of infections, according to a Johns Hopkins University count.<\/p>\n

Brazil also has recorded over 22,000 deaths, which would make it the fifth-most in the world. There have been more than 96,000 U.S. deaths reported.<\/p>\n

The new restrictions would apply to any non-citizens who had been in Brazil for up to 14 days before trying to enter the U.S., officials said, adding that the move would not affect commerce between the two nations.<\/p>\n

President Trump<\/a> added in the statement: \u201cI have determined that it is in the interests of the\u00a0United States to\u00a0take action to restrict and suspend the entry into the United\u00a0States, as immigrants or nonimmigrants, of\u00a0all aliens who\u00a0were physically present within the Federative Republic of Brazil during the 14-day period preceding their entry or attempted entry into the\u00a0United States.\u201d<\/p>\n

Trump already has banned travel from the United Kingdom<\/a>, Europe<\/a> and China<\/a>, all of which have been hit hard by the virus. This past Wednesday, Trump said he had been considering restrictions to travel from Brazil.<\/p>\n

National Security Adviser Robert O\u2019Brien said the U.S. wanted to take \u201cevery step necessary\u201d to protect the American people.<\/p>\n

O\u2019Brien said Sunday on CBS News\u2019 \u201cFace the Nation\u201d<\/a> that he expected any ban would be temporary.<\/p>\n

White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany added in a statement: \u201cToday, 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.\u201d She continued,\u00a0\u201cToday\u2019s action will help ensure foreign nationals who have been in Brazil do not become a source of additional infections in our country.\u201d<\/p>\n

South America<\/a>\u00a0has been seen as a\u00a0new epicenter<\/a> of the\u00a0coronavirus<\/a>\u00a0pandemic, according to the\u00a0World Health Organization<\/a>. Last week,\u00a0Brazil overtook Spain and Italy<\/a>\u00a0in total confirmed cases.<\/p>\n

Brazil President Jair Bolsonaro<\/a> has faced criticism for weeks, with activists saying\u00a0he has flat-out refused to deal with the pandemic<\/a>. Bolsonaro has focused much of his work on reopening the country\u2019s economy.<\/p>\n
