This guy couldn’t have infected more people if he was trying at it.

Anyone know what superspreader’s underlying condition is?

[monkeybrau]

He was kissing, touching or otherwise intimate with ALL of these people. Or it just spreads as easily as a fart in a car. Just like the flu, right?

[Wuli]

I think those most vulnerable to illness from the virus - as he was - also seem to have a more robust colony of the virus in them (more active virus per ounce of blood), making them most likely to transmit the virus to others.

[MeganC]

I bet he shook hands with everyone he met.

Well, apparently Covid-19 is contagious like a cold or other upper respiratory illness. In Korea it looks like one person riding public transit before they are too sick to work infects around 9 other people.

That's how diseases spread.

Has Schumer or Cuomo visited him,yet?
They really should...often.

Merkel is right, 60%ish will get it. They can’t stop it. No country can. They can slow it down a bit. And that is all they need. Stopping it will do us no good. Slowing it down will allow us to treat most of the severe cases.

Look at Japan. They are trying to stop it. Ok, lets say they do. They have done a great job already. Then the Olympics come in late July. What happens? A ton of people come to Japan. And then they get it. All at once, and during the Olympics.

Or even if the did not get the Olympics. Take China. They leave everyone in their homes until the virus passes. Then they go back to work like normal. Of course, the virus will come back. And it will race through those who did not get it before.

The reality is that each population has to have the majority of their people get the virus. Or they have to have a majority have the flu shot, or some combination of the two. Then it resolves to a normal disease. It can’t spread as fast because the people who had it, or have the vaccine will not get it, therefore they will not pass it.

Our government won’t say it. But we are not trying to stop it. We are trying to slowly get it without panic.

Wealthiest town in NYS....But a task for the National Guard?? Yeh...sure....expose all our guys. Cuomo is a dumb a**.

[ifinnegan]

This case shows how relatively nob-communicable it is, if it’s accurate.

If he got it “somewhere”, perhaps an airport say, there would be many many more cases all over if there was random and robust transmission at the airport or wherever he got it in the community.

I don’t think Governor Cuomo was prepared for this, why was he not prepared and basically did nothing to prepare?

Carry hand sanitizer on your belt. Sanitize hands after any contact with humans. A little dab will do ya.
