I suspect that Pollak is talking about cases which were caught in this country. The rest of the cases were sick when they came from somewhere else. [THIS IS A GUESS!]
On the other hand, John Hopkins was reporting 60 U.S. cases, but it you summed up the cases from their map, it comes to less than 40. So I do not understand where the 60 number came from.
Its been in this country for what? Two weeks? And they are making these judgements?
No one should panic, but when your arguments not to panic are so bad...people will panic.
Like many numbers nitwits use to incite, mislead or obfuscate, the number came from a planet...Uranus.
There are over 40 in the US from cruise ship.
