Well, we do have five times the population and almost half of our cases are in
New York.

Not anymore, they are coming to an airport near you. Planes leaving
New York are fully booked from what I hear on the news.


Our friend who lives in DeKalb, IL just flew home. She spends the winter
with her sister in California. Figured air travel would shut down and not
be able to return home. Said there were 33 people on the flight and
thinks from the talk most were airline employees. So those full flights
from NYC are very likely being Coronavirus Petri dish.
