I do believe we were discussing this on Tuesday's post

Wuhan virus has been here since at least January if not earlier.


It’s not unreasonable, in fact, it’s necessary and responsible, to consider that COVID-19 has been in the states since the first of the year; that people suffering similar symptoms to the flu actually had COVID-19; and that the peak of the outbreak occurred last month. The number of people now testing positive for the virus does not mean that the outbreak is accelerating because the data is incomplete.



Also, expect to see the number of Wuhan virus cases climb in the USA due to expanded testing.  Undersatnd that it'll be reported breathlessly by the same half-wit Democrat operatives as somehow new and dangerous, because they're morons parroting whatever line they think will hurt Donald Trump.  But what it will actually mean is that those cases were here all along, not dying, not turning into zombies, because this is just another virus that we have to fight off.

Anyways, this virus has been here for a while, which makes all of the official pronouncements of numbers worthless until they start to count the people who reported Influenza-like illnesses.

In all likelihood, the best thing that happened to control this was when President Trump stopped travel from China.
