She clearly was concerned about it or she wouldn't have taken the precautions she says she did.

My wife and I went out to dinner on the 6th, 7th, and 10th. It was at dinner on th e10th that we decided to take it seriously.

All testing is going to do is spike the numbers and drive more panic.


Won’t a spike in the numbers increase the denominator thus leading to less panic when the mortality rate drops?

Anyone who was still thinking it was cool to fly domestically to a large city at the beginning of March, was asking to get sick. Also-- this is airborne. Washing your hands and not "touching stuff" will not do a thing.

The article says she was the 7th person to test positive in her county.


Not surprised by this, DFW is an international airport. A lot of people in the metroplex work there-- or in businesses that surround the airport. It's nearly a mini city in the metroplex. I would not be surprised if the other cases were people who either worked in the airline industry, the airport, or surrounding business. Tarrant county is vast, so it could be in one of the other small communities in Tarrant. I know someone in Arlington tested positive- this is between Dallas and Fort Worth.

On March 6th this hadn’t reached the current craziness


To assume they were not at risk because you didn't have many cases around the US is idiotic.

Not all heroes wear capes. This is the disease of social media. People think others truly give a shite about their day to day activities.

I guffaw’d out loud at this. I’m going to start posting “not all hero’s wear capes” on some of my Facebook friends omg stories I’ve been reading.

Thanks bro
