More credence to the theory that this virus was in the United States as early as December

The San Francisco Chronicle is reporting that posthumous autopsies are showing that multiple people died in the city of San Francisco from coronavirus before the city's first official death back on March 9. The earliest of which died on February 6 - nearly an entire month before the first official death recorded in the United States.
That means this virus has been circulating in the population far longer than the January 15 "patient zero" in Washington. It's quite likely it has been here since December as the virus typically takes a month to kill you. So the person who died back on February 6 likely contracted the virus in early January.

San Francisco. Where dead people vote and somehow catch COVID-19.

Are there other types of autopsies?

How exactly is a death in February proof that not only was it here before 1/15, but was “likely” here in Dec.
I swear, you are one of the worst ones to take a fact and spin it to mean whatever you want it to.

My son was in ICU over Christmas with "croup", then a week later my wife ended up in the hospital with flu like symptoms. I felt really sick a couple days, but then it just turned into sinus issues. The family that visited all got the same symptoms after returning home, not a single positive flu test
We're all anxious to get our hands on an antibody test.

I would be quick to laugh this off and claim that SF is just fear mongering and being overly dramatic about it or trying to get more federal funds, but I know a number of people here in Alabama who swear they got the coronavirus as early as late December.

That's quite a leap you make there. I'll agree this was circulating more than anyone realized early on, but until there is actual evidence of someone having it in December it's just a theory with nothing backing it up.

We're almost certain my dad, in Covington, had it in early January. All the symptoms, Dr chalked it up as pneumonia, but chest xrays looked negative. Doc couldn't figure it out. Bed ridden for 9 days. Lost like 20 lbs

My husband attended the NADA conference in Vegas At the end of January. A few days after he returned he had a horrible dry cough but no other symptoms. A week after that, I had a dry cough so intense my chest, back and throat hurt from all the coughing. It last about 5 days but then developed bronchitis that lasted for over 7 weeks and I had to use an inhaler during that time.
M convinced we both had it already.

I have a coworker that believes he and his family had it in November. Everyone in his family suffered flu like symptoms but when (the entire family..) was tested, it all came back negative for the flu...
I suggested at some point he and his family get the antibody test.

My cousin has had coronavirus since like February. He goes to the doctor for it and gets better but he gets sick again once he runs out of medicine. It’s really sad, when he doesn’t have his medicine he can barely get out of bed, has whole body aches, diarrhea, it’s really bad and I hope they can find a cure soon

What? No it doesn’t. It’s closer to 2 weeks.
ETA: ok, downvote the person treating covid and go with what the oilfield baw says
