Wow, NY now has more deaths then Washington. I wonder why this flu has not hit the homeless populations in California?
I think most people would try to avoid homeless people where by not infecting them directly.
Could be squeeze.
Could be that it has, and nobody outside the homeless community noticed.
Maybe it has, and they are ignoring sick homeless.
Turd, i mean herd immunity.
California is much more spread out and the homeless don’t travel much.
The increase in reported infections that makes NY the epicenter corresponds to (yesterday's Politico stats, since they show #'s of tests given) the 45,437 tests given (presuming standardized testing), with an increase of +40,165 since last week, and showing 10,356 positives, out of a total pop. of 19,453,561.
In comparison, California had only done 12,528 tests, with an increase since last week of +11,319, showing 1,279 positives, while the state has a total pop. of 39,512,223. (https://www.politico.com/interactives/2020/coronavirus-testing-by-state-chart-of-new-cases/)

George Carlin would have said because their immune systems have had so much practice on lots of germs ...
If community spread is caused by population density, why has this not hit the nation of India??????
