US President Donald Trump is apparently considering far-reaching cordoning off New York and other countries severely affected by the corona crisis. “Some people would like to see New York quarantined because it is a hotspot,” Trump said in the White House garden on Saturday. When he spoke in Norfolk, Virginia, he said it would be “pretty soon” decide. Travel restrictions are also being considered for New York’s neighboring states New Jersey and Connecticut, Trump said. The US east coast state of New York, with the metropolis of the same name, has become the epicenter of the coronavirus pandemic in the United States. On Saturday, the number of infections detected in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut rose to more than 62,000 – more than half of all cases in the United States. In New York in particular, however, significantly more was tested than in other parts of the country. According to the Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, more than 1,800 people have died in the USA so far – more than 700 of them came from the State of New York.
