A person has died in Washington state of COVID-19, state health officials said Saturday, marking the first such reported death in the United States.
State officials issued a terse news release announcing the death, gave no details and scheduled a news conference.
Health officials in California, Oregon and Washington state worried about the novel coronavirus spreading through West Coast communities after confirming three patients were infected by unknown means.
The patients — an older Northern California woman with chronic health conditions, a high school student in Everett, Washington and an employee at a Portland, Oregon-area school — hadn’t recently traveled overseas or had any known close contact with a traveler or an infected person, authorities said.

Disastrous for the poor news stations that need to compete with year over year sales numbers! Next year they are going to need to find a whopper of BS to compete with their ratings from this year. Plus, they need to find new music, graphics, and learn new facial expressions that will match the dire needs of 2021. Perhaps their dream will come true and they can celebrate Bernie with daily articles extolling the virtues and success of socialism??
The common cold is often caused by a corona virus, but not covid-19. The Lysol can is referring to the common virus, not the new one.
but you have to hand it to the dumbocraps, they provided months of impeachment sensationalism fabricated from absolutely nothing.
Not true. I even gave a briefing a few years ago that certain Asiatic people have a genetic variant that makes them more susceptible to serious viral disease. This has been published in the scientific literature. Scientists are not falling over themselves to be politically correct.
I hope you don’t take offense, but I find that many of your posts are very negative.
Not just here, but on other threads.
I would hope that you could find a way to be a little more optimistic. Oh, I know, we have many problems, and it’s hard to stay positive, but you would be much calmer and happier.
I’m not finding fault, just want to help.
When I shoot craps I play the dark side. And I Have to pretty much be silent because most of the table wants the point while I am hoping for a 7. Btw, better odds to play the dark side.
When playing stocks I often short them. This goes against people who want them to go up. I mostly stay silent when shorting
Everyone has a perspective. Mine is not and never has been la la la la blinders on close my ears everything is okay
It is what it is.
I dont have to wear blinders. And I dont have to operate in a lockstep. THis is about freedom of choice and freedom to think for myself
FAKE CONSPIRACY ALERT!
Sounds as though you are a very strong person.
Nothing wrong with that.
Sadly they didn’t realize that most people had no interest in the impeachment story once they figured out it was a scam. This health stuff, much more freaky... hell, even the Pope is gonna die!
“I HIGHLY doubt Lysol will kill COVID-19”
LOL!
It is just a different view point. As the saying goes are you a glass half empty or half full person. I can never really answer that question..perhaps because I see it both ways depending on circumstances, etc.

There are multiple corona viruses just like there are multiple influenza viruses. This one is New.
