This one looks good for the flu obsessed freepers. Looks like it's peaked.

BELLEVUE, Wash. — A patient with "extreme flu-like" symptoms checked into a Bellevue hospital Friday and will be tested for possible coronavirus, according to a hospital spokesperson.
The spokesperson said a patient is currently in isolation at Overlake Hospital in Bellevue. The patient came to the hospital Friday morning while experiencing "extreme flu-like" symptoms, the spokesperson said. ...

Bellevue has the highest number of Chinese in the state.
King County has it’s ballots in English and Chinese, not English and Spanish.
If it’s the flu, they could tell you. If they haven’t traveled or been in contact with any known cases, then I think the CDC is recommending not to test for coronavirus. Unless the person develops ARDS without a diagnosis why.
I guess because test kits are still in short supply.
It wouldn’t be surprising if the two coronavirus cases in CA “of undetermined origin” were near the Mexican border at some point. There have been many Chinese apprehended there.
???????
The Flu is out of control in my area. My sister is suffering from it right now.
I’m near Sacramento and have a cold.
So far it does not seem unusual.
No fever.
“The Washington State Department of Health will hold a press briefing on coronavirus at 8 p.m. PT (11 p.m. ET). No details given.”
They’re government workers staying until 8pm on a Friday night. No doubt they believe they have something significant to say.
Lol!
“It wouldn’t be surprising if the two coronavirus cases in CA “of undetermined origin” were near the Mexican border at some point. “
That’s 600 miles south of the cases.
And there’s this map. ...very high activity in many states.

This one looks good for the flu obsessed freepers. Looks like it's peaked.
These numbers include Mainland China and All Others globally
85,176 declared cases
02,919 declared deceased
39,426 declared recovered
The current mortality rate of deceased / deceased + recovered = 6.89%.
That is a fluid number that is now dropping at the rate of about 0.61% per day.
However, due to the few "HOT" nations outside China right now, it appears
today's drop in mortality rate may be more like 37.5% - 42.5%.
42,345 cases have been declared resolved, and that represents 49.715%
of all declared cases to date. (resolved = deceased or recovered)
As of this post, the active cases have dropped by 1,109 cases today.
This has been taking place for nearly a week, and the drop has been growing.
It may not continue, if cases outside China mushroom. There are now 42,831
active cases. That is 15,978 cases fewer than the highest count of active
cases at 15:13 PST on 02/17/2020. That figure was 58,809.
Yesteday's recovered figure for the one day, was 3,721. Today we're on a
path to hit 2,900.
The big days of China's declared cases are now over two weeks past. Look
for one day recovered numbers to drop off until the global community's large
declared cases become ripe, and people start being declared well there.
The numbers seem to indicate that the decline of active global cases will
probably end in 3-6 days. From that point on the number of active cases will
be growing again.
These numbers address the cases outside of Mainland China.
At this point only 6.95% of all declared cases exist outside Mainland China.
Three days ago, that figure was 3.62%. At the end of the day yesterday,
that figure was 5.48%.
5,915 declared cases
0,084 declared deceased
0,498 declared recovered
The current mortality rate of deceased / deceased + recovered is 14.43%.
That figure is grosely high, and should not be used for purposes of
extrapolation of what lies ahead. It takes several weeks for people to
be infected, and recover. As in the large body of cases above, this
mortality rate is declining, and will pick up speed at the two week mark
of our largest daily declared infections outside China.
582 cases have been declared resolved, and that represents 9.84% of the
cases declared outside of Mainland China.
There are now 5,333 active cases outside of China.
The number of declared cases has grown by 29.52% so far today or 1,348
cases.
There are now 60 nations declaring cases within their borders. 1+
Four nations or entities of the 59 nations or entities outside of China
account for over 80% of all active cases outside China at this time.
2,931 49.55% South Korea
0,803 15.83% Italy
0,705 11.92% Diamond Princess Cruise Ship
0,388 06.56% Iran
83.86% of all cases ourside of China...

University numbers that they provided over the last month.

Thanks for the summary.
You’re welcome.
Correction:
Should have read:
The current mortality rate of deceased / deceased + recovered = 6.89%.
That is a fluid number that is now dropping at the rate of about 0.61% per day.
However, due to the few “HOT” nations outside China right now, it appears
today’s drop in mortality rate may be more like 0.375% - 0.425%.

“Seems like a new report of cases every couple hours on the west coast now.”
wrong. there are new reports of suspected or presumed cases every couple of hours, which means exactly squat until a CDC test comes back positive ... 10,000 people die from extreme influenza in this country every year, and now they’re all going to be reported as “presumed” or “suspected” coronavirus cases, because the fake stream enemedia (and lots of freepers) are absolutely determined to needlessly panic the people of our country in order to bring down Donald Trump and get Bernie Sanders elected ...
“I had a sniffle earlier this evening but I’m fine now.”
sounds like a “presumed” case of coronavirus to me ... i bet you had a little cough too, which can be a really bad sign ...
There was a shift in reporting. They gave local health departments the okay to test and post results yesterday. So when a local test gets a positive it becomes "presumed"...which is a technical designation of "yes, they have the virus" but can't be counted as official from the CDC until they confirm it.
So over the next few days you are going to be overwhelmed with news reports of presumed cases from all over the country because they haven't been allowed to test and publish. But now they are. That's why the spate of presumed positives today...they've had patients whom they suspected had covid but couldn't confirm or report it.
except that the kits the CDC sent out are faulty!
