This outbreak must be really bad

Cutting off transportation into and out of Wuhon is crazy. Wuhon has a population of 11 million people. It is a bigger city than every city in the U.S. (by comparison, NYC has a population of 8.6 million). Can you imagine the impact if the government stopped all planes, trains, and ferries from going to New York, and stopped the subway, all buses, and ferries operating within New York?  Now imagine the government did that just days before Christmas. (Saturday is Chinese New Year, when millions of Chinese travel for the holiday).

Also, it won't help.
