@AzulOscuro - I definitely think that here we missed a huge opportunity to do what New Zealand did. We didn't see the first case until March, when it was already causing trouble in other areas such as Europe and North America. Still, they let people in without a mandatory quarantine, knowing the virus was spreading around. All they had to do was fill in a form about their travels. The first case here was a doctor who was in Asia and Spain on vacation. He waltzed back here, went back to work at a health center in town and gave the virus to something like 8 or 9 co-workers and family members.

It took them over two weeks more for them to restrict entry to residents and citizens only. Arrivals were required to quarantine at that point, but it was pretty much an honor system. They could come to your house and check, but there is no way they could check everyone. I remember a case in those early days where another doctor that was supposed to be quarantining at home after returning from abroad was discovered in a supermarket. I'm not sure how it was determined that she wasn't supposed to be out. They shut down the whole store to sanitize it!
