After 3/15, DL says that there will be major scheduled reductions throughout the EU.

It's actually a ban of anyone coming from the Schengen Area, not only EU citizens, with several exclusions (apart from US Citizens): Permanent Residents, Crew, Diplomats / International Organizations Officials, NATO, so many people traveling on Tourist visas / Visa Waiver through the US will have their travel plans affected.
