The United States and Canada have agreed to extend border closures between the two countries for another 30 days, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Tuesday.
The latest extension will limit nonessential travel until June 21.
Canada announced in mid-March that it would bar most foreigners and nonresidents from entering the country to curb the spread of the novel coronavirus. A 30-day extension was announced by the two countries last month.
As of Tuesday morning, the U.S. has had more than 1.5 million confirmed cases of the coronavirus, with 90,000 deaths attributed to the virus. There are nearly 80,000 cases in Canada and more than 5,900 deaths.
