But US had rejected China travelers' entry and it had been almost 3 weeks now.

The chance that people here in get the virus from travelers from Italy/Japan/South Korea/Middle East is MUCH higher than that from China at this very moment.

US citizens are still allowed to travel to and from China, and there are multiple flights every day.

Yes, and they are supposed to self-quarantine on return for 14 days.

No such rule is present with S. Korea or Italy.

A random traveler from S. Korea/Italy is far "riskier" at this point.

(Bonus: It's actually really hard to fly directly from China to the US at this point. Your best bets (esp. in the north) are transit through S. Korea or Japan, both infected places)
