US Department of State: Global Level 4 Health Advisory – Do Not Travel
- donohoe 7y agoBorders closing? US says “immediate return” or prepare to remain abroad for “indefinite period”
- dragonwriter 7y ago> Borders closing? Absolutely seems to be coming. We've got an inbound ban from much of Europe and a mutually-agreed closure of the US-Canada border already, and now a “don’t travel now and return immediately if already abroad” advisory on top of that.
- divbzero 7y agoThis seems very possible given the State Department’s unusually stark language: “U.S. citizens who live in the United States should arrange for immediate return to the United States, unless they are prepared to remain abroad for an indefinite period.” A HN comment from a few days ago [1] drew a similar conclusion based on the way Prime Minister Trudeau announced Canada’s first round of border restrictions: “Canadian travelers should return to Canada [via] commercial means while it is still possible to do so. Let me be clear: If you are abroad, it’s time to come home.” [1]: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22596009 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22596009 [2]: https://m.washingtontimes.com/news/2020/mar/16/justin-trudeau-canada-closing-borders-noncitizens/ https://m.washingtontimes.com/news/2020/mar/16/justin-trudea...
