The rapid response thwarted travel around the world just as families were preparing to unite for Christmas.
"Please help us leave!"
said one British traveller
who was among dozens held overnight in German airports, unable to leave until virus tests come back negative.
While
India and Hong Kong
joined the move to suspend travel from the UK,
US officials signalled they were holding off for now.
Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison said
he was confident existing 14-day quarantine rules
for arrivals were sufficient to handle the threat,
also holding back on a flight ban.
The flow of goods from France
was disrupted after Paris
imposed a 48-hour blockade on people and lorries crossing the English Channel
- just as companies are racing to shift merchandise before Britain finally quits European Union trade structures.
The country's critical
south coast port of Dover
said late Sunday it would close
to all accompanied freight
and passengers due
to the French border restrictions "until further notice".
The Netherlands,
another key sea route from Europe to Britain,
confirmed its freight routes to the UK
remained open.
Concerns about the rapid spread of the disease
were underlined with the publication of official figures
showing there had been a further 36,804 lab-confirmed cases
of coronavirus in the UK
yesterday.
According to travel expert Paul Charles,
from the PC Agency, hundreds of thousands of people will be affected by the travel bans."
