Cred - good morning

I think there are definitely epicenters for the us. It appears that travel from China to the US goes to about 5-6 airports. NYC, predictably, was an epicenter. I am surprised Los Angeles and San Fran have not been hit harder.

I think what’s good for NYC isn’t what’s needed for Nebraska or something like that. Some of the mid states have had outbreaks at meat plants that became their mini epicenter.

The big picture: At least 430,000 people have flown to the U.S. from China since Dec. 31, when China first informed the World Health Organization about cases of novel coronavirus in Wuhan, the Times reports.

Most passengers arrived in January at airports in San Francisco, New York, Los Angeles, Seattle, Newark, Chicago and Detroit.
"Thousands of them flew directly from Wuhan," the original epicenter of the COVID-19 outbreak, per the NYT.

Trump travel restriction of China — yes other countries had them already in place but we were the first western nation to do it. Trump gets credit for that ... although I’m 100% convinced that he did it to spite China (And Iran) and not as some preventative measure. If the outbreak came from somewhere like Saudi Arabia, which he considers a friend.

I give trump credit for the travel restriction. I think he got to the right decision through wrong thinking ... but the ultimate decision, no matter how he got there, was the best decision for the US.
