“A person who died at home in Santa Clara County on Feb. 6 was infected with the coronavirus at the time of death, a stunning discovery that makes that individual the first recorded COVID-19 fatality in the United States“

Straight from the top of the article. So much bullshite going on. Did Covid kill the person or did they die with it? For all we know from the article they died of a heart attack but they had asymptomatic Covid.

The notion of going back and doing an autopsy is odd to me.

If you take it literally, it couldn’t have been asymptomatic COVID if it had gross symptoms evident on autopsy.

And if they were going back and testing for COVID....well you don’t need an autopsy for that.

I guess a lot depends on why was it tested now?

That is on par with the rest of the Covid deaths. Why not this one?

And what if Eye-Gore switched the brains in the lab? That would prove this was engineered by evil scientists in a lab in Wuhan and sprayed over the California Central Valley by crop dusters in a Democratic plot to embarrass Trump.

Doesn’t matter. Someone on Feb 6 had covid. They probably weren’t the person that brought it here either.

It’s been here longer than experts have been believing.

I may be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that if someone died of an heart attack that it would already be known.

But beyond that, that wasn't the point of the article. The article was to show that this virus has indeed already been here longer than what was previously speculated.

Sure, but the most important thing here is the proof that the virus was here much earlier than previously confirmed and therefore likely far more widespread than thought. It means the death rate is probably lower and way more people have been exposed which helps us get closer to herd immunity.
