Can’t help but wonder if any of the elderly individuals campaigning to be president will come down with a case of COVID-19 and die. Sorry, had to say it.

ALL of the people who passed were at the same assisted care facility and ALL were in very poor health, I hardly think we should consider this as spreading OR a huge death rate due to the virus!! This would be expected in a facility like this!!!

My theory is that it’s been in the wild in this country for quite some time, but relatively few will see any symptoms. There’s a certain profile of those who will, and the key is to find out that profile.

The question is how did they get it...who was the point of contact?

Where do you get that idea? Perhaps in China. It’s just getting started elsewhere.

Valid point on the death rate.

The problem is that many folks will be carriers, just fine and not show symptoms—and it will eventually reach others who could overload hospital capacity and of course some who will die.

Yes it is a care facility in Kirkland Wa, they have around 170 residents.. It is so awful that is happening.

How many people have caught this virus and never even knew they had it?

Yup. And deduct the home-office construction costs from income taxes too :-)

Ok, thought so. Damn. Wonder how it got in there? Had to be a visitor you’d think. The visitor might not have even known, then got sick and recovered. Who knows.

Vegas isn’t shut down yet? 2020 Year of the Metal Rat. Tons of orientals young and old viewing the magnificence inside the Bellagio. Let’s be proactive, activists.
C’mon $0R0S...write those checks.

I am betting it was a worker, there are a lot of illegals working in these assisted care facilities in the kitchens, janitorial ect.

“visitor might not have even known”

That is my biggest fear. I will wear a mask when I visit my mother so I do not give her anything.

I am going down to see them and do work around their house. Had a cold for a week now. No fever or other signs. That is bad you have to worry about being carrier.
