A ventilator is the exact wrong treatment.

It’s almost as if they want people to die.

For those that don’t read the articles:

” the only other person she’s come into contact with is a woman who volunteered to drop off groceries at her doorstep once. Brummert said the woman later tested positive for COVID-19.”

Kinda sounds like the flu.

“I barely had any contact,” she said. “I didn’t even touch her.”

Well, it does travel through the air. You chatted with her face-to-face and that's often enough to spread it.

“A ventilator is the exact wrong treatment.
It’s almost as if they want people to die.”

When they reach that point, there is NO other treatment.

[DannyTN]

Most likely it was the woman who dropped off the groceries.

My exact thought.

A ventilator is the exact wrong treatment.

Yep.

Whenever we get grocery deliveries my Mom puts on the gloves and mask(And sunglasses) than clorox’s every item..does NOT bring the bags into the house..as far as the mail we dont take out the mail for 24 hours she also puts on gloves and a mask before opening up anything

“Kinda sounds like the flu.”

Only it was COVID-19.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Yeah, she stayed home and had contact with someone infectious with with CCP Virus. Duh!

[palmer]

Except flu spreads more easily. If COVID spread as easily there would be a billion people with it now.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Id like to know if she wore a mask when the woman came over to bring the groceries, that will be the key to figuring out how she got it

[Blennos]

What’s obviously missing in this piece? How is this lady being treated? Is she being given the proven — yet highly controversial(just kidding) — HCQ/AZ/zinc regimen? If not, then why not? If so, then she doesn’t have much to worry about.

[yoe]

Oh well.....

[plain talk]

“the only other person she’s come into contact with is a woman who volunteered to drop off groceries at her doorstep once. Brummert said the woman later tested positive for COVID-19.”

The likely source.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Which is very different from what the headline implies.

Journalistic malpractice on the part of WCNC.

This particular virus also lives a long time on surfaces touched by an infected person. Days depending on the type of surface.
