Reuters could not find evidence of major media outlets or Democrats
calling the "Proclamation on Suspension of Entry as Immigrants and
Nonimmigrants of Persons who Pose a Risk of Transmitting 2019 Novel
Coronavirus" racist, xenophobic or bigoted. This line of criticism has
been widely used to condemn the travel ban (Executive Order 13769) and
its later iterations ( here

coronavirus outbreak, and its latest iteration issued in January 2020
was not part of Trump’s coronavirus response.
