I spent the first week of March in New York City at Adweek’s Challenger Brands summit, held right across the street from the World Trade Center. Before I left, my wife encouraged me not to go.

But there were very few cases in New York at the time, and still a lot of misconceptions about its severity and how it spread, so I went.

As I watched commuters exit the Cortlandt Station at the World Trade Center, I couldn’t help but think how difficult controlling the spread of the coronavirus would be if it took off in New York.
