My wife got a call from her doctor. The doctor had a patient that had a friend who’s co-worker had the virus. My wife wasn’t worried - but glad to be notified.
We are in the Seattle area (we have even closer contacts than that). I told her “Yeah - it’s like that Kevin Bacon thing.” She laughed. “I saw on twitter some meme that said ‘God help us if Kevin Bacon gets the corona virus!’”
1)My sister-in-law was friends in High School with some famous reporter (my wife would remember the name).
2)That reporter has interviewed Bacon several times.
