@arstechnica i think the cat pictured is unrelated to the story, but whoever chose that cat pic did a good job of communicating the right emotion from the cat's perspective

@arstechnica I thought the cases reported in North America have been on the East Coast.

West coast ports get much more traffic these days however.
