They were overwhelmingly asymptomatic, so most were unaware they were even infected, which adds additional weight to their significance, as this virus was milder earlier and got more and more aggressive every time it mutated. The cases in China were definitely stronger than those in Italy.

Not to mention the strain that infected New York came from Europe, not China.
