I have not heard any reports of coronavirus among Seattle’s vast homeless population. Our Washington state statistics totally skew any kind of curve are because one nursing home Life Care and apparently a couple others, got infected.

The homeless, although there has been little sunshine there, at least get more natural vitamin D than do the indoor, in air-condition workers.

We actually are not having deaths in Seattle per se. The major deaths have been east of Seattle in Bellevue and Kirkland where there are massive Asian populations who would have been more likely to travel to Chinese New Year. Not the nursing home folks who passed but mayhap staff workers or visitors who traveled to mainland China.

The east side of Lake Washington, east of Seattle, has areas pretty much owned by wealthy Chinese who can well afford to travel. It is kind of like Vancouver, BC, in that regard.

There was a time back in the 60s, when I was a pre-tean lad, I lived in Renton. Saw the first 747 fall into lake Washington.

My wife and I have been frequent visitors at the Life Care Center in Kirkland for many years. They have so many Asian nurses aides, that sometimes there have been problems trying to understand what was being said.
