I believe the one (as of yesterday) American case presented himself at a hospital and immediately let them know where he'd been and that he had suspicious symptoms so they could isolate him. I'm sure they're checking to see where he was between the airport and showing up at the hospital. Makes me think he wanted to come home to US medical care rather than being stuck in a foreign country -- especially after they shut that city down and all the US reporters were getting out in the middle of the night.

It’s getting bad! Dead bodies in the hallways of hospitals. Why do they have to eat bat soup?! Chicken and pork isn’t good enough?! My lord. Now we all suffer. It’s in the US and will grow. Anyone ever see Last man on earth? It’s happening. Someone call Dustin Hoffman and Cuba Gooding JR cause we are having an outbreak.
 
I would think that people at greatest risk in the US are college students. Their schools are filled with students from mainland China who just returned to school after going home over the winter semester break.

I was perfectly happy not to play cards with our Italian friends this week as they were welcoming their Chinese high school students back from Christmas break. I wondered how many families also hosting students had health concerns, in addition to families just sending their kids to school with newly arrived from China kids.

A confirmed case now in Toronto! Why was this man allowed out of the isolation zone (Wuhan) and able to board a plane for Toronto (or anywhere)? I read in one news report that a passenger on the plane tweeted Canadian Immigration as soon as the plane landed in Toronto to say that a sick passenger was on the flight from China needs to be checked when they go through customs.
