Yep, and we can thank Trump for virtually every out-break in the US other than California/Washington due to his not restricting flights from Italy. He should have stopped them weeks ago and anyone who demanded come in go into a 12 day quarantine.

Very disappointing

This virus is in the wild. Nothing anyone can do now to stop it. Slow it perhaps, but not stop it.

The U.S. State Department...urging travelers to exercise increased caution.

What does "increased caution" look like on an international flight or any flight that lasts for > n hours? Not sharing breathed air with fellow travelers?

There must be a prudent risk calculation that is then compared to the rate of economic damage.

The outbreaks in France, Spain, and Germany are caused by retuning travelers from Italy who are asymptomatic when infecting others.

This infectivity period may last weeks, without symptoms.

You are completely correct, the flights should have stopped three weeks ago (and of course South Korea, too).
