The Trump administration has prevented at least 140 travelers from entering the United States as it attempts to contain the spread of the novel coronavirus in the US.
Fourteen foreign nationals were turned away at US airports and 126 people were refused entry at land ports from February 2 to February 12, according to data provided to CNN by the Department of Homeland Security. Airlines are responsible for removing passengers who are denied entry to the US out of the country. Additionally, 34 travelers were stopped at preclearance locations -- airports where US officials conduct screening before passengers board US-bound flights.
