April 21, 2020 1,433 people have died from coronavirus in the past 24 hours, according to the latest data from Johns Hopkins University. The total deaths since the epidemic exploded are over 42 thousand in the country. The infections are over 784 thousand.

President Donald Trump announces that he will stop immigration to the United States for coronavirus. Via Twitter, Trump anticipates that he will sign an executive order "in light of the attack by the invisible enemy" to protect American citizens by temporarily "suspending immigration to the United States".

In light of the attack from the Invisible Enemy, as well as the need to protect the jobs of our GREAT American Citizens, I will be signing an Executive Order to temporarily suspend immigration into the United States!

In the meantime, he calls for America's rebirth by praising governors who are deciding to reopen their states by loosening or completely lifting anti-virus restrictions. The American president then defends his strategy against the pandemic: "For months I have not left the White House and I have saved many lives," he said referring to the decision to immediately block flights from China, although in reality some connections are all operational today and the ban does not apply to US citizens, residents and their families.
