It's not their fault.

The disease hit New York first before it hit anywhere else in the US and hence had a lot of time to develop. I heard from one source, that it was already present in New York back in december and that one of the first worldwide cases came to New york early. that was from a Joe Rogan podcast episode.

Given the close economic and cultural ties between the west coast and Asia, I find it very hard to believe that Coronavirus travelled through Europe to NYC before it travelled directly from China to LA or SF.

We don't even know if "time to develop" in that way is even a thing in reality.
