What is the situation for foreign postdocs now for the US? Will they be accepting them or are they included in the visa ban? Will universities only recruit locally? Should I still apply? This corona pandemic situation has created so much uncertainty

Hello,
I have completed my PhD 4 months ago and now I would like to engage in a postdoctoral research to advance my career. I did my PhD on the population Pharmacokinetics and PK/PD analysis of levofloxacin and moxifloxacin in multidrug resistant tuberculosis patients. My PhD journey was tough involved a tough struggle between my ambitious PhD work plan and budget constraint. It has been tough but I kicked it off exceeding the expected goal. My dissertation was rated as Excellent by the examining board. There are areas to work on and improve taking an opportunity of a postdoctoral study.
Would any one help me find such an opportunity, please?
Many thanks!
