Should I travel to Seattle even with the Coronavirus there?

Question

All the deaths are happening around Seattle, WA. I heard a lot of people could have it there, just not show symptoms but spread it. I'm 25 and got a strong immune system. I know if I get infected it won't kill me but I don't want to spread it to anyone. The reason I'd go to Seattle is because in a few weeks one of my best friends is having his wedding there. I'd feel bad not going but for safety. Airports are dangerous. What should I do?

Update:

All the deaths in the US

Wait to decide.  In a few weeks, it could be that where you live now will be as dangerous as Seattle, so there will be no reason not to go.

If you concerned about the airport specifically, then don't fly there.  Drive or take Amtrak.  Or if it's too far, then fly to a safer airport that's close, but not to close, and drive/train the rest of the war.

There are currently 11 corona virus deaths in the USA.  Most of them involve patients at a (one) nursing home in WA.  Unless you are a patient at the same nursing home you really don't have to worry about it.

Travel IF YOU WANT.

It is prudent to ALWAYS regularly WASH YOUR HANDS and take the normal safe health procedures. This virus is just one of many you MIGHT get passing through an Airport.

I'm 25 and got a strong immune system. The complete opposite of the vast majority of those currently  ill.

In a FEW weeks the situation May dictate some other thing.

All the Deaths ? California while it waits for the big one is still part of the USA.
