God Speed to those who are responsible enough to do it.
1 person had contact with 1,000 people?? Is that possible? Maybe if he went on the subway everyday for a few weeks

*PENTAGON MANAGING `SMALL NUMBER’ OF CORONAVIRUS CASES: OFFICIAL
And as a reminder from the Doc in Italy...in the beginning people test negative because the viral load isn’t high enough. They come back later with shortness of breath and test positive.
He does commute. But also he is Jewish and practices his faith. Many people at his synagogue.
Lawyer.... damn.
Suggest he visit Perkins Coie for possible employment. /sarc

I imagine they could ID people traveling at the same time from prepaid fares on their credit card.
What does that mean? Pentagon has it or they are monitoring others for defense reasons?
Wait til it hits that big homeless population in California.....
During the 2018–2019 season, 136 deaths in children with laboratory–confirmed influenza virus infection were reported in the United States8.
However, influenza-associated pediatric deaths are likely under-reported as not all children whose death was related to an influenza virus infection may have been tested for influenza9,10.
By combining data on hospitalization rates, influenza testing practices, and the frequency of death in and out of the hospital from death certificates, we estimate that there were approximately 480 deaths associated with influenza in children during 2018–2019.
Our estimates of hospitalizations and mortality associated with the 2018–2019 influenza season continue to demonstrate how serious influenza virus infection can be. We estimate, overall, there were 490,600 hospitalizations and 34,200 deaths during the 2018–2019 season. More than 46,000 hospitalizations occurred in children (aged <18 years); however, 57% of hospitalizations occurred in older adults aged ≥65 years.
Older adults also accounted for 75% of influenza-associated deaths, highlighting that older adults are particularly vulnerable to severe outcomes resulting from an influenza virus infection. An estimated 8,100 deaths occurred among working age adults (aged 18–64 years), an age group that often has low influenza vaccination uptake11.
Conclusion
CDC estimates that influenza was associated with more than 35.5 million illnesses, more than 16.5 million medical visits, 490,600 hospitalizations, and 34,200 deaths during the 2018–2019 influenza season. This burden was similar to estimated burden during the 2012–2013 influenza season1. "
"Typically strikes those over 65 in larger proportion and kills that same demographic in disproportionately higher numbers than other demo's due to the likely hood they have pre-existing underlying conditions which are complicated by any flu or cold..."
That is why they shut down the temple..one week he went there for services, the next week a Bar Mitzvah, and the week after someone’s funeral..geez no wonder they are saying 1,000
HIs office is near Grand Central Terminal.
If he was taking that it seems like 1000 number is low.
Death of patient with COVID-19
Placer County Public Health is reporting that a resident has died of COVID-19. The person, an elderly adult with underlying health conditions, was the second confirmed case of COVID-19 in the county and is now the first to die from the illness in California.
“We extend our deepest condolences to the loved ones of this patient,” said Placer County Health Officer Dr. Aimee Sisson. “While we have expected more cases, this death is an unfortunate milestone in our efforts to fight this disease, and one that we never wanted to see.
“While most cases of COVID-19 exhibit mild or moderate symptoms, this tragic death underscores the urgent need for us to take extra steps to protect residents who are particularly vulnerable to developing more serious illness, including elderly persons and those with underlying health conditions.”
The patient tested presumptively positive on Tuesday at a California lab and was likely exposed during international travel from Feb. 11-21 on a Princess cruise ship that departed from San Francisco to Mexico. The patient was in isolation at Kaiser Permanente Roseville.
‘Obey’?
Well … what did they think they would happen when they threw open the boarders to everyone on earth?
Did they think the boarder was just a line on a map to be ignored because people wanted to push THEIR PC agenda?
Are boarders only about geography? How stupid can people BE?
Seriously?
Some people in the Pentagon do have COVID-19 and all meetings at the Pentagon have been cancelled.
Or could be a small number of cases in the entire military.
He had been to Miami
Worldometers is reporting 25 new cases today in the US.
