Note:
Wuhan was closed to interprovincial traffic very early on. The International Airport, however, was left open.
There's a hanful of ways you can look at that:
Wuhan International couldn't be closed without consent from Beijing.
Beijing didn't grant it because
A) Poor information propagation
Or
B) Someone made a weighty geopolitical decision that in order to best serve China's interests, it was time to make this everyone's problem, leaving the International Airport open as a result.
Or
C) some combo of the two.
I don't know your particular balance in regards to the actual Overton Window as extended to humanity as a whole, but I damn well know where it registers on mine.
