I look at Italy and the North has been hit hard. But the more populated areas in the South haven't really been hit as hard primarily because of the quarantine. What happens after the quarantine?

In America New York has been hit hard. But why not LA, SF, Chicago etc? My guess is their time is coming.

I have yet to see anyone's reasonable theory as to why NY would have such trouble but not Chicago, etc. My guess? The time simply hasn't come. As we see across the world it takes longer in certain places for the virus to ramp up.

Social distancing and lockdowns are working. But how long can we keep it up? What happens when we stop?
