The virus has had plenty to time to migrate all over the country
 
A bunch of us here in Central Texas have been comparing notes and it appears this Coronavirus stuff has already roared through here, back in December & January. A whole bunch of people came down with something that had all the signs of typical flu, but with an unusual nasty twist to it of respiratory problems. People choking up, having a hard time breathing. They didn't get a whole lot of help from doctors at the time, they just rode it out. I also remember a number of ambulance calls around the county back then where people having difficulty breathing were getting hauled off to the hospital. Friends in north Texas had something nasty like this back in November. What we have going on now is closing the barn door well after the livestock already got out.

I hope and believe you and I are right.

As for me....After working closely with 2 California associates in December, I acquired a cough that would normally exit after a week or 2, but lasted for a very abnormal 2 months, accompanied by some days of very difficult breathing, and zero energy. Very odd for a dry cough and my 15 years of dealing with it.

Not to get too graphic, but my normal winter bronchial condition was clocklike and not dry. This cough was, with almost zero congestion & expectoration but I still couldn't breath. One shot of cortisone stopped the lung inflammation in hours.

Little doubt in my mind, looking back, which would be very, very good news.

If Ds and media (but I repeat myself) were not looking for a means to get Trump, this would be considered a "new flu. Look out."

DjT likes the idea of a 2nd corona ECONOMY task force to engineer a re-opening of this needlessly injured economy. The new ECON Force will--I predict and hope--strongly recommend we resume normal operations by Easter in many regions and May 1 everywhere else and he'll go for it, sharing responsibility and flak with Force2. This is a crucial political season, so I'll give him some slack to CYA.
