In my neighborhod the businesses owned by Chinese or Vietnamese immigrants had a quicker, more forceful response and I think it’s probably not a coincidence that the Bay Area has a lot Asian immigrants and a lot of business ties to Asia. — PolitiTweet.org

The closest thing to a common thread that I see is proximity to SARS. The SARS-inflected countries had much stronger responses than western ones. I idiosyncratically follow several Americans who live in Asia and learned a lot early from them. — PolitiTweet.org

There was a period in February when every Western public health official was saying “there’s no need to wear a mask unless you’re sick” and every person who lived in Asia was saying “everyone should wear a mask in case they’re sick.” Same science, opposite (better) social norm. — PolitiTweet.org
