Did they know how they got it?

They're both sales people (for two different companies). She spends a lot of time in NYC & recently Westchester. She uses mostly trains/subways & the Staten Island Ferry. Only takes her auto when she has sales calls on LI or outside of NYC where there isn't mass transit.

He works mostly from home.

She, it seems got it & then infected him. She was feeling lousy. Went to a doctor who thought it might be flu. Gave her some heavy antibiotics to take to prevent against pneumonia & took swabs from both of them & sent them in for testing. Week or so later results came back in - COVID-19.

This was in the early February when she started feeling ill.
They've been self quarantining since March 9th.

Yeah, that sounds like what could have happen...?

So that's even before the first reported case in this country,I think..

get these men off of that ship - logistics be damned

*“Decisive action is required now in order to … prevent tragic outcomes.”
The captain acknowledged that there are “challenges” in finding individual housing for his sailors. “This will require a political solution but it is the right thing to do,” he wrote. “We are not at war. Sailors do not need to die. If we do not act now, we are failing to properly take care of our most trusted asset — our Sailors.”

WTF?

[Investigators arrested a California train engineer Tuesday after he allegedly derailed a train in a bid to crash into the USNS Mercy, the hospital ship treating non-COVID-19 patients at the Port of Los Angeles to lessen the burden on area hospitals, prosecutors said.

Eduardo Moreno, 44, was expected to appear in court Wednesday for arraignment on train wrecking charges.]('https://www.yahoo.com/gma/engineer-tried-crash-train-usns-mercy-los-angeles-233500380--abc-news-topstories.html')

I wonder if it has anything to do with the recent crackdown on the seaborne drug trade (cartels) and our Navy going after them big time off Venezuela and in the Caribbean.

April Fool.

April Fool.

SHHHHHH :eek: :D

I was sick near end of February with something like I never experienced before. Didn’t have a fever or shortness of breath. I did have fatigue, soreness of muscles and coughing which was far from a dry cough. Also something I’ve never had before was the pink eye type symptom in my right eye which after a few days moved to my left eye both with terrible discharge of stuff...one morning I was unable to open them without running hot water in the shower over them.

It took 5 hours for someone to raise that point. Either nobody cared or anyone who was going to have a heart attack already had one.

Or folks have seen that one, or NJ or IL or any other state that the "Closure" has been posted under and really didn't give a flying you know what at a rolling donut...

Friend of a friend just sent me this. Could be BS but who knows.

The number of Guard troops mobilized in the effort to cope with the [coronavirus pandemi]('https://www.militarytimes.com/news/your-military/2020/03/26/as-covid-19-cases-continue-to-rise-the-military-could-throttle-how-much-information-it-releases/')c continues to grow.

As of Thursday afternoon, more than 18,500 Air and Army National Guard professionals are supporting the COVID-19 crisis response at the direction of their governors.

That’s an increase of about 1,250 Guard troops since Wednesday.

In addition, 11 states, two territories and the District of Columbia have been approved for use of federal funds for state missions under Title 32, with another 26 requests moving through the approval process, Guard officials say.

That list includes California, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, New York and Washington and the territories of Guam and Puerto Rico. That’s one more state receiving federal funds since Wednesday.

In addition, 22 states and two territories have approved use of Dual-Status Commanders.

Governors across all 50 states, Puerto Rico, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands and Washington D.C. have each mobilized components of their Army and Air National Guard to assist in their state’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Just did a quick Google search, the President already invoked the Stafford act on March 13 to declare a national emergency. The Stafford act does not allow the Federal Government to impose mandatory quarantines.
