The CDC needs to protect AMERICANS and NOT wait for WHO... The US does not take marching orders from the UN

I’m back in California. I came back on Saturday, Friday night, actually, came through LAX. In L.A., in Orange County, there are two cases. Why is the CDC not announcing the flights on which the patients came, the airports through which they traveled, and any public spaces they may been in? Even though I understand patient privacy, you don’t want to name the hospitals, although I know one of them in which the patients are. But you do want, I think, to alert people to the flights, airports, and time and point of entry, don’t you?
JI: Yeah, I think that is important, Hugh. And this way, folks can at least be aware if they were on a flight. Then, they certainly can be watching for symptoms. They can, of course, alert others that they’ve been in contact with. Of course, we don’t want mass pandemonium, but we do need people paying attention to this, and we need to monitor the situation very closely. So CDC, I know, is working with many of these states.
Did he really say that? The Flight number is in the 2nd graf of the NY Post article : "The traveler landed at LA International Airport around 6:46 p.m. Wednesday [1/22] on American Airlines Flight 2546, where they were met by police and firefighters, Fox 5 reports." The CDC nailed him on the spot and took him straight to quarantine, uh, the hospital.
The Canadian doofus flew China Southern from Guangzhou to Toronto on 1/23, was wearing a mask on the flight, drove home, and promptly gave the bug to his wife.
