I don't believe that. There was a guy who made a Youtube video showing the hundreds and hundreds of daily flights coming and going from China even weeks after the outbreak. He said "there's no quarantine if you have money."

What I am wondering is why no significant outbreak in Indonesia? Philippines? Southeast Asia? India? If it is a pandemic, those countries will be hit hard. I would also expect Rio, Mexico City, to see huge increases in cases before Europe and the US. So far that has not happened.

Those countries might be reporting the cases as influenza or pneumonia, and not the coronavirus.
