Yeah, I thought the same. Especially with the hospital not allowing them to wear masks in patient areas. And yes, the guy with symptoms is the one that walked into a cv room. My son is worried too because he has several older folks on his crew plus one who has a kid with cancer.

I found out today that a different contracting firm working there had to pull out, several workers with cv symptoms.

I filed a complaint with OSHA. I know these are difficult times for hospitals but there is NO reason my son and his crew were not allowed masks when they already have them for the type of work they do.

I wonder if you can tell if you have COVID 19 but just looking for signs in your blood tests..which by the way you can order yourself through www.directlabs.com

The lower white blood count is interesting. It’s been a long time since I looked at the blood tests of patient 0 in washington so I dont remember his.

[Characteristics of peripheral blood leukocyte differential counts in patients with COVID-19].

In conclusion, leukopenia, lymphocytopenia and eosinophil cytopenia are more common in COVID-19 patients than those in non- COVID-19 patients.
