In the main area hospital in my state which is one of the hotspots areas for the virus believe the first two cases happened because of two different funerals they attended at two different churches.
Our death rate continues to climb every day. It's up to 17, and about 150 are critically ill from the virus with hundreds waiting on test results.
This is the same hospital I was in recently for 8 days, and was only released 2 or 3 days before the first confirmed case here.
The city of Albany is about 90k population with 150k in total for Dougherty county, yet it is the second worst hit area in the state, iirc. Its even far beyond the larger towns, a counties around Atlanta.
One of our granddaughters is a radiology tech at a doctor's office in Albany, and we have many family members who are nurses or in the healthcare field here, and in our county of Lee.
She had a patient come in at the end of last week. She was the first to see him asking all the necessary coronavirus questions. He denied having any symptoms yet when he went in to see the doctor he told him he felt he had it, which he did. Ugh. So she had to be tested, and thank God her test results today were negative. But the man was so reckless since he could have spread it not only to her, but all of the staff in the doctor's office.
It's people like this that drives me bonkers, and the ones who refuse to socially distance themselves to protect not only themselves, but everyone they have come in contact with.
Our oldest daughter lives in Mexico Beach, Florida, and she said the mayor there refuses to close stores, and beaches so they have had so many from other states pouring into their area in the past few weeks. Many are from hard hit areas, and states too.
