I'm not so sure that is good news, at least not for our town. It seems cases are starting to spike here. The virus has hit our police dept, fire dept, city run healthcare clinic, 2 state prisons, cookie factory, special needs homes. For a relatively small town, we have A LOT of it. I saw 15-20 people lined up at a snow cone kiosk at a local park, with all of them sandwiched together. It seems like people are past the point of caring about the virus. This is potentially dangerous.
Aw shucks....
No one here get out alive.
I'll wear mask where I need to, gloves, too.
I'll keep away from people as best I can.
Perspective:
My county has 1000 cases as testing positive, (1024 I think) total.
24 have died, around 200 have recovered.
Most of those still counted as with the virus, are recovering at home.
It sounds like a lot.
Considering my county has over 800K residency, we would have to get to 8K carriers to reach 1%.
I've been home for 6 weeks now.
(I have been working from home, and to be honest, I think I am more productive doing so).
Time to join my co-workers.
