Some More Good News:
These gentleman asked some really good questions during their interview with Dr. Fauci. They are millenials, the two hosts.
Encouraging point Dr. Fauci mentions: The time China realized it had a problem in December to today, with no new cases reported, was an 8 to 10 week time frame. In the scheme of things, that is not a long time.
Dr. Fauci inferred that with mitigation and constraints, that the US may be able to cut this time frame down and make it shorter.

I hope it's just from all the speaking he's doing lately.

In Low Priority/LowImportance Coronavirus related news:
I had no idea that Dr. Anthony Fauci is 79 years old!!!!! He looks great! Stating the obvious, he's almost an octogenarian, almost 80 years old!
He walks 3.5 miles a day.
Anthony Fauci net worth is
$11 Million
I figured he was rich after I learned his age. Very few broke people look that good, at that age.

Watching MSNBC. One of NBC’s employees, a black man, passed away because of complications from C19. He had underlying health issues.

In this ABC interview clip, they clearly show Dr. Fauci touching his face. That in itself is no big deal.
In this interview with ABC news, he says he never, touched his face. Yet, it clearly shows him touching his face @10 minutes in the video, posted below.
In the interview with the millennials I posted above in another thread and below in this post, he was ADAMANT about saying he NEVER touched his face during that press conference. The picture shows the contrary. But he DID touch his face. (It starts @ 28:00 minutes: where he says he didn't touch his face.

May his family be comforted at this time of loss of their precious family member.
I wonder if Larry had high blood pressure and was using an ACE inhibiting drug or had diabetes ? That's something we' ll not likely ever know.
You know I was just thinking about this point yesterday. They say that it affects seniors and people with underlying medical conditions. How many people of all ages are walking around with unknown underlying medical conditions? You don't wake up one morning and think I've got cancer today. So many people get diagnosed late in their illness. I used to work for an orthopedic surgeon. Patients had to be cleared before surgery. There were a number of patients would come back and have to postpone because they found out they were stage 1 cancer. They had no symptoms. The only reason they had gotten checked was because they needed a joint replacement. The messaging that as long as your not old or have an underlying condition your fine is the wrong message.

In case there's anyone who needs to explain to non-English speaking people about C-19, here's an info site with about 20 different languages. Obviously some of it is UK based, but I thought it gives a good explanation. The refugees at the college I work at weren't understanding at all.

This may explain the situation near Seattle and San Francisco too. Both have significant tech business with lots of foreign workers.My observations based upon no verified data.
Take this information with a grain of salt. My logic may just be stupid.
I have no formal data, only my observations. So what I am saying could be a bunch of hooey and crap. Or, it may afford you some useful information.
My Observations:
I understand the virus has hot spots on the West Coast. Based upon my observations of the hot spots of the outbreaks around the world, I think that New York is going to have the highest and fastest surge. Then, the wave may move from East to West.
New York is the 3rd or 4th most populated state, depending upon which source you reference.
- California
- Texas
- New York
- Florida
But, it may be the largest port of entry for people legal and illegal and trafficked people.
Although Latin American people and South American people come through the US border on the West Coast, the majority of South Americans head to Western and Central Europe, which is the current epicenters for the surges in the virus.
I am talking about people who are clandestine and undocumented. I believe these undocumented people pose the greatest threat. Not because they are bad people, but because it is hard to identify them and track them and test them. Italy has never found "patient zero". They have only found "patient one" who I believe may have been a 30 year old male.
Why do I say this? Because the maps of human trafficking match, and could be overlayed over the the hotspots in the world.
Notice the flows and destinations of human trafficking:
Look at the a screen shot of the early John Hopkins interactive map:
You can see a correlation between this map's hot spots and the destinations and of the trafficking map. China has three (3) inflows to the destination areas, which were the initial hot spots for the Covid-19. This correlation could be mere coincidence and it could be correlation with no real meaning.
This is why I feel that there will be a surge in cases on the East Coast. Then, that wave will move across the US to the the West Coast, with California, Texas, Florida and Illinois being impacted by their own waves and surges.

Very good point for us to know. Thank you! I think this is important.
The other critical component to know, are these foreign workers traceable? If they are traceable, as in legally here, then that helps ease the contact trace back process and helps combat the problem enormously. The complexity seems to come when you address people who on paper 'don't really exist'.

You’d think we’d see similar patterns in college towns with international students. But maybe students don’t have the funds for leisure travel like tech workers do.

I watch Cuomo’s pressers and mute the presidents. He ends up lying or guessing about half the stuff he says. But hey..Dr. Fauci is back.

You just may.
The virus seems to be just ramping up in the US. I don't think the outbreak has really gotten started yet where people see and feel the scope and reality of it.
When it takes hold, cases increase exponentially. Cases jump literally, which feels like, overnight.

Hold down the fort, my Pretty, Precious, Pen Pals.
Still yourselves with calm and inner peace. It takes work and focus, but it's worth it.
Listen to your intuition and your and inner guidance. They will lead and guide you safely and securely, in the right direction.

Can I just say thank you @Chicoro for being a beautiful beacon of light in this. Your words really are so encouraging in this thread. I swear I can feel your positive energy as if I'm in the room with you.
And I do agree with your assessment about the current scale of this. Due to the lack of large scale testing, I truly believe all countries have under diagnosed the virus. Not on purpose or with malicious intent (at least I hope not) but due to the fact that there aren't enough tests and therefore they are selecting who to test (money>symptoms in this case). The fact that so many NBA players are testing positive with no symptoms is telling. Based on the criteria of which patients are being listed as high risk, they should be excluded (young men, not many underlying health conditions, excellent immune system) but they have it. And the fact that it takes so long for the test results to come back, you have to track contact back probably 3-4 weeks. For a regular person, that's easily 100 people from just general passing. A celeb or person in power, 10x more.
If wide scale testing with quick result turnaround becomes available, we really are going to see this ramp up. There are too many symptomatic people showing up at the ER and being negative for flu to say otherwise. At this point, having symptoms and a negative flu test should automatically have the test done.
