There is this open issue on the tensorflow github:
https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/issues/17022
https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/issues/23705
This one seems to be the main issue tracker:
https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/issues/20517


In the first issue above, somebody provides a workaround for Mac, with an 
unofficial wheel that one can install.  But that does not work for me with 
Keras, there is something in that version of tensorflow that is incompatible 
with Keras.

Tensorflow and Keras only list Python 3.6 in their releases on PyPI, and 
tensorflow cannot be installed on Python 3.7.  This is the result from trying 
on my mac:

$ pip install tensorflow
Collecting tensorflow
  Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement tensorflow (from 
versions: )
No matching distribution found for tensorflow
