I’d be more inclined to believe that people with well-functioning immune systems, regardless of blood type, are less likely to get sick in general, and that would include Covid. I’m neither A nor O, but I’m not going to sweat finding out my supposed vulnerability based on blood. I did buy one of those books on eating optimally for your blood type, but disregarded it after I found out that so many otherwise healthy foods that I happened to love were supposedly “bad” for my blood type... go figure!
2 Seattle retirement community employees fired for faking positive COVID-19 tests
Two employees of Horizon House, a retirement community in Seattle, have been fired after falsifying their positive COVID-19 tests and triggering a quarantine, according to a statement from the community’s CEO Mike Ostrem.
On March 25, the first employee reported they were COVID-19 symptomatic following exposure to an infected person outside of work. That employee was tested that day and reported a positive test result on March 26, Ostrem said in a statement. The second employee was identified as a close contact and took a test, which they reported as positive on March 30.
The employees gave verbal confirmation of their positive test results and provided a screenshot of the results page. The two seemingly positive COVID-19 tests triggered Horizon House to notify Public Health – Seattle & King County, which instructed the community to quarantine, Ostrem said.
King County health officials had not yet received the positive case confirmation reports from the testing lab, as there is often a lag, but Horizon House mobilized a full quarantine effective on March 31.
Meanwhile, King County public health continued to track down the two employee’s positive test results, which were not showing up in the agency’s database. On April 1, King County public health was able to determine that both tests were actually negative.
The employees’ manager requested a second copy of the test results from each employee, which both stated they were positive. However, upon further discussion with the two employees, it was revealed they had altered and falsified their test result report, according to a statement from Ostrem.
It’s unclear why the employees falsified the results. Both employees have since been terminated and the matter was referred to the King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office for further investigation, Ostrem said. Prosecutors said this is the first encounter they have had in which individuals falsified information to state a positive COVID-19 test, said Ostrem.

Probably wanted two weeks off (with pay) for quarantine...

I know right.......I’m not supposed to eat beef, but I crave it and feel so much better after a good steak.
Sometimes, it takes personal knowledge over “book learning”
