Regardless, this situation is highly fluid, so things may change in a week.

Yeah the ports are what I was curious about for sure. One has to think that it makes no sense in the US at this point to close them for multiple reasons. Not the least of which being that this thing is already widespread inside the US, so closing commerce at ports isn't going to do anything. And also that has huge economic implications and I personally think that would cause more panic.
