European travel preceded the index cases in at least 13 states and territories, compared to only six from China. There were as many imported index cases from cruise ships (six) as from China, while Italy accounted for at least 10 of the first Covid-19 cases." This is from fairly political publication though... | |
Apr 14, 2020 at 23:09 | comment | added | Steven Stadnicki | Excellent update, though of course it may be worth noting that this answer is not in conflict with the previous answers; if nothing else, the relative size of the WA and NYC outbreaks on the genomic epidemiology map shows how early in the process its conclusions were. That the president's statement is true now (mid-April) doesn't mean that it was true when stated because the data themselves have changed over time, not just our knowledge. | |
