So the virus will not infect Portuguese nationals when they travel to the US or any other non-European Union country?!

Could even make the headline in some scientific papers.
Otherwise they should be tested on return... shouldn't they? Just like every other human being (potentially exposed to the virus and a potential virus-carrier) from the same region.
