Italy was one of the first countries to ban flights from China. Fat lot of good it did. But I agree that there should have been a stronger reaction, in terms of testing / tracing / isolating.

It did after it was already infected, by then they should've reduced the mobility of the people, close the football games, etc - which they didn't and led to people from Valencia going to Milan for the match, getting infected and spreading the thing faster still in Spain.

No "panic" enough.
