China says U.S. move to raise travel warning is inappropriate

• The United States and other countries are taking measures to prevent the spread of coronovirus.
• The World Health Organization has urged countries to avoid travel restrictions.

The World Health Organization has urged countries to avoid travel restrictions, but the U.S. State Department has now raised its warning level on travel to China to the same level as for Iraq and Afghanistan.

The United States and other countries are taking measures to prevent the spread of coronovirus, which originated in the Chinese city of Wuhan and has now killed some 213 people, all in China so far. It has affected more than 9,800 people globally.
