President Trump on Saturday said during a press briefing that he's considering barring travel from certain places within the United States.
The president didn't go into much detail about what places might be affected, but he said the White House is "working with states" to determine the best path forward. Regardless, he advised Americans not to travel if they "don't have to" because "we want this thing to end."
