China continued outbound int’l flights until Mar 27, about the same time they kicked all foreign press out, but Trump shut the door Jan 31 on noncitizen entry from China.
Where they got us was, we were allowing US citizens and others to return to the US via Europe until Mar 12, which led to NYC’s first case Mar 1 - whereas China refused to allow entry of any of their citizens caught outside their country from Feb 1. (returning students excepted)
China has infiltrated the country on a level not understood by many. They’re in gubmint, media, sports, academia, the military, think tanks, shipping, food production, etc.
