It is “in the wild” in metro Seattle for sure—so that is the place to watch to see how the disease progresses—since they have excellent monitoring and health care facilities.
Once they begin wide-spread testing, expect to see the numbers rise very substantially....watch for how many people are hospitalized as well as the death figures...
Keep in mind that today’s fatality numbers correlate to LAST weeks case number. There is a week before being reported and death, on average.
