Seattle Real Estate Podcast ^ | January 10, 2021 | Sean Reynolds

More than 150 employees at a Costco in the state of Washington that tested positive for COVID-19 have returned to work following a mandatory quarantine period, FOX Business has confirmed.

As of Tuesday, 173 employees at the Union Gap warehouse in Yakima County have been infected with the virus and were forced to quarantine, the Yakima Health District and the store's general manager, Keri Luft, said.

Last month, the Yakima Health District announced it was working with the wholesale club to investigate the outbreak after at least 68 employees tested positive right before Christmas.

The health department said the "sharp increase in cases mimics the type of activity that happens after some sort of superspreader event." However, officials were unable to pinpoint any specific event that may have caused the outbreak, Bravo said.

Virus’s spread.....only takes one infected individual.

I recall the flu going throughout our store hitting everybody every year ,before I retired.......it was never if but when we’d get it.

Of course not.....just struggled by with skeleton crews for every shift.....But people today fret even when there’s an inch of snow on the ground......the backbone of Americans is sadly lacking these days.

Does Costco sell Ivermectin, Vit D, Vit C, zinc supplements, quercitin and melatonin?
If so then they have no excuse for letting their employees get infected.

The employees should start a class action lawsuit.

Costco needs to get rid of the ‘t’ so they can have the same name as the Chinese company.

Are you in the snake oil business? If not, why do you persist in peddling snake oil?

Can you find any other post where I’ve recommended this ... or anything else?

Nope, it does not. And unclear what medical background you’re claiming for imposing your BS snake oil on others.

Your BS snake oil won’t prevent COVID but maybe it caused your memory lapse.

First of all I didn't recommend anyone take it here so you were just lying about that. Like you've been doing since you joined FR.

"I CAN'T KEEP DOING THIS": Doctor pleads for review of data during COVID-19 Senate hearing Doctor cites numerous studies ...

US Health Authorities Asked by Three Distinguished Physicians to Review Medical Evidence for Prevention and Early Treatment of COVID-19 with Ivermectin

Numerous links there to studies, doctor's statements, the protocol and more.

Nowhere in that post did I recommend it. I linked to information for people to educate themselves.

Doctors on this forum use it in their practices.

Ivermectin is actually a macrolide like a Zithromax Macrolides have antiviral and anti-inflammatory activity. Why ivermectin over any other? I wish I had an answer. But it does work.
