Let me just say that suspending travel from Europe for 30 days makes very little sense.

The issue is that the virus is spreading WITHIN THE US, undetected, because we have not created a functional testing system
I'll be curious what experts have to say on this. But I have not seen any recommending this kind of step. Canada did not impose restrictions on travel from China but is doing much better because of adequate TESTING.
This is what happens when you have Stephen Miller, who has not medical expertise but is a raging xenophobe, writing your speech to the nation

I'll have more on the central problem in the US, which is THE LACK OF TESTING, in my newsletter

It's just common sense. Shutting down travel doesn't do anything when there are already plenty of cases inside your own borders that are not being detected. Without detection, keeping Europeans out does not stop the spread.
The giveaway on this is the exception for the UK.

Poland has 31 cases and the UK has 459.

Why are we banning travel from Poland but not the UK?
