US President Donald Trump has said he is considering imposing a quarantine on New York, New Jersey and Connecticut. If it went ahead, the lockdown would see more than 21 million people confined to their homes. Speaking at the White House he told reporters he would rather not impose the restrictions but that he may need to. He said: "Some people would like to see New York quarantined because it's a hot spot - New York, New Jersey, maybe one or two other places... certain parts of Connecticut quarantined. I'm thinking about that right now." He went on: "We might not have to do it but there is a possibility that sometime today we'll do a quarantine, short term, two weeks for New York, probably New Jersey, certain parts of Connecticut." And he added: "Because they're having problems down in Florida - a lot of New York going down. We don't want that."
