Reuters

   TOKYO - Japan plans to widen travel warnings to much of Europe urging
   people avoid trips there as the coronavirus pandemic spreads, public
   broadcaster NHK said.

   Japan will widen a level three advisory, which already applies to much
   Italy, to surrounding areas in Europe, NHK reported. That notice urges
   people to avoid all travel and asks Japanese resident there to prepare
   for possible evacuation.

   Other European nations including Germany, France and Norway, although
   not including Britain, will be subject to a level two advisory, which
   asks people to avoid non-essential travel, NHK said.
