Corona Virus # 3

[RandyT]

Apparently Missouri's "Covid-19 person" was a young person age 20 who had traveled to Italy and came back with the virus. Then they violated the home quarantine after testing positive for the virus and went to a school dance. Needless to say the St. Louis county health officials are not very happy with this person.

From what I have heard is the daughter came home sick, but the father/daughter dance with the other daughter was before the sick daughter was actually confirmed. The father received the call while at the dance and they then left and went home.

Passenger tests positive for coronavirus on JetBlue flight

For what? Catching the virus. He suspected but he didn't know and he took precautions. As I read the article he didn't find out until right before takeoff. Right now there are lots of people with the virus and no noticeable symptoms. Unlike the flu of just over 100 years ago healthy adults have little to fear, it is small children, the elderly and the unhealthy that are the most vulnerable.

Too bad people are panicking like this was an air born bubonic plague or something. Unfortunately the death rate is skewed because there are so many who have slight or no symptoms that they aren't added to the base number of cases.

Something about that - "Passenger tests positive" - story does not make sense. The "woman" got a call just prior to the man leaving on the Blue Jet flight. It implied that his test was positive but actually did not say that.

If he tested positive - the call should have come from the local Health Dept. It should have been along these lines - "Mr Jones - your test for Corona Virus is positive. You are now under quarantine. DO NOT leave your house. Your name has been given to the local law enforcement agency and they will have you and your house under routine surveillance". "We will be in direct contact with you within two hours for further instructions".

The ***** Footers and Nay Sayers are going to be the downfall of any attempted containment program.

Your right, we should all panic.

Get a clue...this guy was sick enough to get tested he should have been quarantined...

And BTW the latest reports say that it is an air born contagion...

They do if you chain them to a tree.:shhh:

Possibly, maybe, only if those doing the chaining chain themselves.

Yesterday my wife told her department to stay home if they had a fever. You wouldn't think you would ever have to tell people that.

I guess we can all thank the Chinese and their poor containment policies for all this.... How quaint.

Probably time to start a thread about who is positive and who isn't so we can avoid the locations where the positive folks reside....

Glad I'm not a market watcher, Just the devaluing of my stock investments is enough to make me sick.
