On the TV news is a report that China's top laboratory for pathogens is 20 miles away from the meat market where the outbreak supposedly began.

US 101 is THE backbone of the Pacific coast from Bandon OR to Willits CA.  Industry, tourism and local traffic would be gone or severely crippled without it being in functioning condition in BOTH states.

I have major doubts about another Spanish Flu type epidemic ever happening (barring a major collapse of society) between much more advanced health systems and knowledge, plus no global scale conflict on the level of World War I that allowed that pandemic to grow, mutate, and spread.

-It's contagious before people have symptoms or its presence can be detected

Isn't that also true of the flu?  I'm not certain about the "presence can be detected" part, but the flu is contagious for something like a week before symptoms develop.

There are now two cases in the same spot of rural California. However, I would expect a contagion with 11 cases to be like this:

7 Los Angeles
4 Chicago
Nowhere else

Not this:

2 Los Angeles (in different parts of the metro area, so unrelated)
2 rural California, same spot
2 Santa Clara
2 Chicago
1 Boston
1 suburb of Phoenix
1 Seattle

This looks like random points on a map, although it's a bit less the case than before with the same rural area getting 2. Does anyone know if the locations with two known cases are people who travel together?

Also, "coronavirus" is a description, not the name of the virus. While it's okay for now (the terminology, not the virus itself!), it might cause confusion in the future if there's another outbreak caused by a completely different coronavirus.

Apparently there are rumors going around that 5 people in Fairfield, CA have gotten the Coronavirus but the CDC and hospitals around Fairfield, CA are still in the verification stage due to reports that 5 people gotten symptoms. Yes Fairfield, CA is one of these cities that might overtake the rest of the country for Coronavirus reports.

People should remember that the CDC's case definition is basically "flu + China." There's a lot of flu going around and many nCoV suspects are going to simply be that.

Yesterday in the news, it was proclaimed that there were 6 confirmed cases of this coronavirus here.  One article even went into detail about who the first person was, and my co-worker saw a blurb with reporters outside a hospital in Omaha (not in Kansas??).

Today in the news, it was proclaimed:
"We've been getting messages about a story claiming there are six confirmed cases of Wuhan coronavirus in Wichita.  It's NOT TRUE.  Kansas currently has NO confirmed cases."

There are risk assessment procedures, which dictate how patients are treated. Those with significant infection probability are isolated first, tested afterward.
I wouldn't be surprised if this was a non-coronavirus cold coupled with some red flags - which triggered full response even before test samples were collected.
Since medical aspects of situation are private and confidential, bystanders don't know anything for sure.
I can easily see erroneous reports coming out in a situation like that.
