Without wishing to take this thread in a political direction, it doesn’t fit the narrative of blaming Europeans for the spread there.

There was word of an air bridge between the U.K. and US, which seems crazy when we (the U.K.) would still quarantine visitors from far less infected countries. I don’t see the sense (economics aside) of air bridges at all, actually. A countries risk to us isn’t reduced just because they don’t quarantine our citizens.
