"taking into account that hundreds of millions of Chinese travel around"

Problem with that assertion is that knowing what we know today about the virus, this should have generated superspreader event situations along the travel path, which would have transported the virus to other locations in china.

Instead the opposite happened, and china tried to contain the virus to wuhan.

Did that happen with SARS?

It's not obvious to me that superspreading events should have happened along the way.

SARS isn’t nearly as contagious.
