As a counterpoint, I argue that this has not been contained and most of us have already been exposed to coronavirus. I spent more than a week throughout Italy in mid-February. There were a ton of Asian tourists. The likelihood that I've been exposed is pretty high.
If I caught it during that time, I didn't notice.
