NY & NY now account for 15% of cases in the world, and almost 50% of cases in the U.S. Why isn't anybody talking about how riding the trains and subways is the problem?

Common sense. Subways and trains are like being stuck on the cruise ships. Incubators for spreading the virus.

Until they deal with this in NY it's going to be a huge fucking problem for all of us.

Japan shut all the schools down in the entire country in early March.

That was the #1 suggestion made by the Imperial College model to suppress contagion.

Combination of factors. Masks, and school shutdowns lowering the initial spread rate, thus a lower rate overall later.
