The order includes broad exceptions. It does not apply to those with existing temporary work visas or to spouses or children of U.S. citizens looking to come to the U.S. It also wouldn’t apply to anyone deemed to “perform work essential to combating, recovering from, or otherwise alleviating the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak,” including health workers.
