Travelling to the USA ...

I used to think travelling to the USA would be a challenge for me finding adequate travel insurance for health cover with my 1 in a million diagnosis. Never mind my disabling disease. But now that's dwarfed by it just not being a safe place for outsiders to travel to. Detentions at US border prompt UK, Germany, and Nordic nations to revise travel advice.

Incidentally I just noticed on my desktop computer that this year's Worldcon scifi convention (I'm not a signed up member, but get emails due to last year's Glasgow Worldcon membership) emailed re travel concerns a short while ago. This year's Worldcon is in Seattle.

And yes, I know there are bigger problems within the USA for many folks living there.

But from watching outside it's horrific enough.
