Let's go to NBC News for the word on what's happening in Italy. March 8, 2020, "Coronavirus updates live: Million quarantined in Italy, as D.C. reports first case".
This NBC piece, as so many others do, mixes and matches reports. Millions quarantined there, first case here. The tactic is meant to build up details of an overwhelming cascade of "proof": the threat is real, the storm clouds have opened and the rain is falling.
