      @ScottAdamsSays China is larger than the continental US, so: Imagine there were a (relatively contained) scary flu outbreak in the middle of Tennessee: would you expect other countries to immediately stop air travel to places like Portland or Seattle?

      Saying “just shut down the airport” could be right for tiny countries with ONE airport, but for vast regions with dozens of them, the cost of shutting them ALL seems pretty large relative to the risks, though you do get points for consistency

      No airports would be shut. Just inbound flights from China.

      That works for direct flights, not major hubs unless there’s multinational coordination closing flights from China to said hubs. Else you’d have to screen passengers based on origin.

          What does origin matter once they’ve traveled together?

          In that case, stop all flights from hubs accepting arrivals from the affected region. It’s then a risk vs impact analysis. I’m optimistic that it will be contained.

          No effective way to screen has been devised yet.

          So we do the best we can, while we figure out the effective method. The DNA sequence has been shared. It’s not the quickest way but it’s a start.
