I get that this is just another version of the Flu, but the infection rate is overwhelming healthcare systems making it dicey for babies and elderly... I also think the US was a little slow to react, now back pedaling hard seeing the explosion of cases in the EU. Look at the CDC website and brace for the number of cases in the US to mirror that 5X increase the EU had over the past 2 weeks.

Theres a pretty clear correlation between confirmed cases in the US and major airport locations. West coast got hit heavy first with people traveling from China and now east coast is picking up from the EU. Maybe the EU travel ban acts as a speed bump but confirmed infections are likely a fifth of actual carriers so I think this is going to get worse in the next 2-3 weeks before it pans out.

Eventually this will all quickly disappear like Ebola, SARS, and Zika scares. Those caused widespread panic and now you dont hear about anyone getting them.
