Not sure they’ve found out.

IIRC he was on a flight to/from Miami so it might have been there.

But likely from someone asymptomatic or thinking they had allergies or a little cold.

This seems to be the either/or virus. Not a spectrum. Either you have a mild case OR you end up in the hospital. No in between.

The numbers I have seen is 15% of those who have the disease are hospitalized.

However, there may be different criteria in different countries over what gets you into the hospital.

I think the percentage may be lower because some folks may have such minor symptoms in the general population that they may never get tested.

Thanks. It seems from what we’ve learned he must have been in early (profuse shedding) stage because he’s infected a LOT of people.
