James Zimmerman was quoted in The Washington Post article, "Live Updates: Coronavirus Deaths Soar as U.S. Warns Against China Travel," regarding the U.S. travel advisory urging Americans not to visit China.

But James, former chairman of the American Chamber of Commerce in China, said in light of the departure arrangement, the State Department’s travel warning appeared “extreme.” It is “premature and suspect, and overreacting at best,” he said Friday. “The advisory is a clear reflection of how fear and a lack of trustworthy information can be an insidious combination.”
