A retired Manhattan surgeon who later died of coronavirus flew from New York to Los Angeles and back in March — after much of the country was already on lockdown. In another instance in March a person from South Korea flew to Los Angeles and became the first COVID-19 death there.

CDC officials said LA public officials never informed them about the patients being on the flights. According to Fox News, the virus from the surgeon’s flight eventually reached a California assisted living facility, where a dozen people eventually died.
