NEW YORKERS CAN ONLY BLAME THEMSELVES. NEW YORK AND OTHER SANCTUARY STATES OPEN THEIR ARMS TO UNVETTED ILLEGAL ALIENS AND NOW MUST GIVE THEIR LIVES FOR THE ERRORS OF THEIR LEADERS. PRESIDENT TRUMP TRIED TO STOP IT BUT CANNOT CONSTITUTIONALLY. LOOK TO YOUR POLITICAL LEADERS YOU ELECTED THEM.

I doubt that’s what’s happening here. Illegals can’t leave the country, because they can’t get back in. The only ones who will chance a departure are dangerous criminals on the run from the law. Any viral transmission likely came from citizens and legal aliens who traveled to cities where they caught the bug, then returned stateside.

It’s unfortunate that the end of flights from China wasn’t accompanied by mandatory testing and quarantine. Then again, there were all kinds of theories floating around about how Chinese sanitary practices and genetics made them uniquely susceptible, so not locking people up until they tested negative might have been a reasonable response.
