I agree.  I think we also benefited from early travel restrictions from China.  Many others followed within days, but a few days made a huge difference on the early exponential curve.

We didn't jump on travel restrictions from Europe quite as quickly, which is likely the main reason the East Coast is worse than the West Coast.
