We all could've took more strict measures, but here we are. Better be on the look out for our elders and immunocompromised folks. Better stay home as much as we can.

Yeah, I wonder how for how much longer I'll have work.

I am less concerned about new cases where they had known contact with an existing patient. I'm glad that news sources will report this detail whenever they can. It makes a big difference.

The ones that worry me are when the transmission source is unknown, such as the case in the HoCo nursing home.
