Methinks the US still isn't taking this seriously
As a humanitarian gesture the U.S. decided to allow American citizens abroad to return home to be with family and receive medical care if and when needed.
Unfortunately, one of the political parties refuses to allow changes to the chain migration laws under which non- citizen family members can come into the country to be reunited with existing American citizens.
My understanding is that from China alone 40,000 have been “repatriated” to the U.S. to be with their brothers, cousins, uncles, grandparents etc. since the pandemic began.
The migration continues, even with the virus in the background.
Add that to the movement of consumer goods, food and medical equipment being sent from places with low virus issues to States where help is needed quickly and yes, the planes are still flying, though many less.
Many parts of the States are already beginning to see a flattening of the curve in regards to new cases and yes, it’s being taken very seriously in the U.S.
Back to the ice!
