When Covid first became 'a thing', it was imported into the US West Coast from China and into the US East Coast from Europe. Now CNN is reporting that Europe is thinking of banning Americans from visiting there because we have done a much poorer job of bringing the number if cases down.

Now I see that Fox News is also reporting this possibility

Yup, some countries may consider letting us in later in July...

Covid19 was introduced from China to both East and West USA - via Europe to the Eastern USA, but still from China.

Wow, Donald. The discussion was how it entered the US, not the original source of the virus.

Even if the countries open to US citizens, you are risking being forced to quarantine for 7 - 14 days when you arrive.

My wife and I had motel reservations that would have allowed us to spend part of migration season at Pt Pelee NP in Canada, but we understood why that wasn’t possible this year.

Considering the recent activity lately here in the United States (I'm not talking about the virus), can you really blame other countries for not letting us in?

They are probably afraid you won't go back.

I guess I should be careful about the virus.
My kids say I have risks to watch out for.
(1) I am over 60
(2) I have type 2 diabetes
(3) I am cold blooded [ my normal temperature is 95 degrees not 98.6]
(4) In 1980, while having a tooth worked on, an assistance told the dentist, she could not find a pulse. I said” that drunk last night was right.” The dentist said.” that drunk?” I said ,” I’m a police officer and when I took a drunk to jail, he said that I didn’t have a heart”
(5) My granddaughter said I should do like her book said and go to a mirror and say “Mirror, mirror on the wall, whose the fairest of us all” I said OK and when into the bathroom to the mirror and said “Mirror , mirror on the wall” that’s as far as I got before the mirror cracked up. So I’m UGLY too.

It’s not just the COVID virus - we’ve become such an a$$#0le of a country who could blame them.

There is no "vs," only finance.
