Quarantine ends for all 195 coronavirus evacuees at California Air Force base
All 195 coronavirus evacuees from Wuhan, China who were staying at March Air Reserve Base in California have completed their 14-day quarantine period, health officials announced in a news conference Tuesday.
There were no cases of coronavirus identified in the group, which arrived at the base in Riverside County on January 29. The 195 individuals completed their final health check Tuesday morning.
Health officials emphasized that they do not have the novel coronavirus and pose no health risk.

"There is realistic chance" of stopping coronavirus, WHO director-general says
"“If we invest now in rational and evidence-based interventions, we have a realistic chance of stopping the COVID19 outbreak,” he said during a news conference on Tuesday."
The director-general said the virus could “create havoc” if it reaches a country whose health system is not capable of handling such an epidemic. “I have a great concern that if this virus makes it to a weaker health system it will create havoc,” he said. He cautioned that the fact that thus far authorities have been able to prevent that, “It doesn’t mean it will not happen — it may.”

To me, the most telling factor is that Singapore has as much China air traffic as the US, and has community spread. I think they also have a denser population that's well-connected, and a better medical system where people have good access to doctors and won't hesitate to go if they feel ill. So they have better eyes on their situation than we do on ours.
I can imagine someone, or a few someones, in the US not feeling really well, who want or need to just shrug it off and carry on without seeing anyone. And if they were in a smaller community, or a not well-served community, I could imagine community spread going unnoticed until someone, or more likely a few someones, become critically ill and die. Because who's going to look too deeply into a pneumonia death or heart failure death of a elderly person during flu season? I think it would take a far louder alarm clock than that.
Anyway, here in the US I see the current problem as a(n) unidentified infectious person(s).
Across the globe, yeah, there are many countries where 2019-nCoV could become epidemic. And then what would the US do to stem the tide. Forbid ALL foreigners from landing in the US? It has the potential the become the zombie apocalypse, where an unstoppable tide comes through your door.
So I see the potential for spread through two waves - the first by direct import from China, the second by import from the world at large.

... Another 39 Infected ON Cruise Ship

From the article ...
Quote:
After a relatively quiet 36 hours for the 'Diamond Princess', Japanese authorities reported 39 more cases, bringing the total to 174 out of 492 people on board tested, while Japan's defense Minister Taro Kono tweeted that a quarantine officer from the health ministry also tested positive for the virus. As Bloomberg notes, Carnival’s Diamond Princess cruise ship has become the biggest center of infection of any place outside of China. The Diamond Princess was placed under quarantine last week and checks were conducted after a passenger from Hong Kong who had been on the ship tested positive for the virus. The ship has become a case of concern because of the possibility of more infections in the vessel’s confined spaces, and the increased risks to elderly passengers.
So isolating people in their cabins and serving them meals in-cabin HASN'T stopped the spread of the NOCOV-19 virus? Do the servers test positive? If not, what's left? Ventilation systems?
Like I said, it will provide valuable data once they tease out HOW people are becoming infected. I'd sure hate to be on that ship.

You don't think India would be capable of containing it?

Well, one thing we know now is that they haven't tested everyone. That's a serious gap in whatever information one might hope to glean from the situation.
And btw, I hope Japan gets two huge black eyes and a decade long-divot in tourism over their handling of this. They deserve it.
Speaking of the people on the ship ... I think one would have to be made of incredibly strong mental stuff to not be driven crazy. Not only are they trapped in their cabins, but they watch the virus hit passengers one by one, and they can't escape.
