Population density and the subways have to play a huge part.  There are also at least 8 strains - I believe the west coast stuff mostly kicked off from China while the NYC outbreak may have really accelerated after that lady got back from Iran.  One may hit humans harder than the others.

After flights from China were suspended, and well into February, NY City Mayor Bill DeBlasio and NY City Health Commissioner Oxiris Barbot were encouraging people to go out, mingle, etc - specifically including the Chinese New Year parade.  Once again, virtue signaling and identity politics win out over a health crisis.

That is awful.

Yelp.  The Gurkha's have turned the neck grabbers into groin grabbers.  Looks hard on the old ball sack.   :'(

Coronavirus Pandemic: A massive religious gathering at Delhi's Nizamuddin mosque earlier this month has caused a huge coronavirus scare. "The fact that when any gathering beyond 200 wasn't allowed, and there were 200 people there in Markaz, then the responsibility lies on the organisers to cancel the event," Aam Aadmi Party spokesperson Ajoy Kumar said.

A choir decided to go ahead with rehearsal. Now dozens of members have COVID-19 and two are dead

Jamie Lloyd-Smith, a UCLA infectious disease researcher, said it’s possible that the forceful breathing action of singing dispersed viral particles in the church room that were widely inhaled.

“One could imagine that really trying to project your voice would also project more droplets and aerosols,” he said.

Linsey Marr, an environmental engineer at Virginia Tech and an expert on airborne transmission of viruses, said some people happen to be especially good at exhaling fine material, producing 1,000 times more than others.

These 'social distancing pliers' would not work in my city. Too many FAT people. Unless they used these pliers around their necks.

Well that's always the case, isn't it?  Voice of experience?
