I noticed that. The case in orange county was taken to the hospital when confirmed. For the love of Pete why? if they weren’t sick enough to be hospitalized leave them at home. The family is already exposed.

For 35 years, my wife was the head RN of a busy FP’s office.
The docs were advised by the local ID doc to have the receptionists tell flu patients in a flu outbreak to stay at home.
Then, my wife or one of the other RN’s over the phone, told the patients or their family what to do.
Then, they told them there was nothing they could do at the office for them. If they came to the office, they would have to leave.
One year, this failed, and everyone in the office came down with a severe flu. They closed the office for a week.
