Ida Culver House in the Roosevelt neighborhood (North Seattle, near the University of Washington for those outside the area).
This has been mentioned a few times now and I feel like it's being overlooked so people can just keep "It'll only kill your if you're old" narrative going in their heads.
Well, it's in Turkey as of today:

Sağlık Bakanı Koca: Test sonucu pozitif çıktı (Türkiye'de ilk Corona virüsü vakası)
Sağlık Bakanı Fahrettin Koca, Türkiye'de bugün akşam saatlerinde Corona virüs şüphesi olan bir vatandaşın test sonucunun pozitif çıktığını bildirdi. Koca, "Hastanın virüsü Avrupa teması üzerinden aldığı bilinmektedir. Dış dünyadan tamamen izole edilmiştir. Hasta bir erkektir ve genel durumu...

Too bad people from the Seattle area are flying there right now. A family who's kids just had their school district closed down for two weeks was interviewed by the local news and they said they're going to Hawaii instead of staying here and doing the right thing.
My friend had a work conference in Colorado tomorrow that was just cancelled. No flight refund and the hotel is only refunding one night (she was gonna be there Wed-Saturday)
do you think the United States can just shut down for 2 weeks and quarantine everyone like China did? Come on.
Atleast in BC here things are being handled really well so far. I kind of wish though they would stop and unnessecary travel between the US and Canada for now considering we are so close to Seattle and a few of our cases have been from people returning from Seattle. I would say though that we have been really good with testing and then following the chain for infected people and people in general have been really diligent with self quarantine.
News from Utah is someone with the virus attended the BYU-Gonzaga basketball game last week. Also, someone dad at work apparently came in contact with someone who has it.
We definitely suck, but Taiwan is a densely populated country within a small area.
Thanks. I have this nagging feeling that we've already been hit hard and we just don't know it yet.I saw this come across the wire earlier today.

“Today, the @LADeptHealth has confirmed two new presumptive positive cases of COVID-19 in Louisiana. Currently, we have three presumptive positive cases of coronavirus in Louisiana, all in the New Orleans area. #lagov #lalege 📰: https://t.co/t4qHoDZHbI”twitter.com
That's bleak. I've seen similar projections elsewhere. It's going to be interesting(for lack of a better word) once we get a grasp on the scale of how many people are actually infected in the states.
Italians were saying the same about Italy 2 weeks ago. And yet here we are. It's either that or millions of deaths
We do not know if they had/have an underlying medical condition.
I think it's also known to affect smokers / people with lung damage, and diabetics / people with unchecked high blood sugar, too.
Any kind of respiratory issue kinda supersedes the age factor, do we know what underlying condition this person had?
Not trying to be insulting, but this is the kind of reasoning I got from my kids when they were 9 years old and were told to do something for the sake of safety.
"But nothing bad happened the last time we did it!"
There are always going to be cases like this, and no one is really saying "it will *only* kill you if you're old". It's not a "narrative". The mortality rate is not high for young people. It's not zero, but that goes for lots of things. That doesn't make it any less shitty for the people who are at significant risk, or that healthier people should care less about it.
If i remember corretly he was ill but still doing sport and all. And he went to the hospital very very late.
Being densely populated make the virus harder to control.
They also have really good public transportation and train system which are strong vectors for infection.
The US is the richest and most technologically advanced country in the history of the world, our government can and should do way more. I honestly think Americans expect too little from their government.
17K People live there but they had to close it down because it was spreading so fast even inside the village.
Our head teacher is saying he reckons before Easter. Even if the government doesn't close schools, if they relax the recommended isolation symptoms to anything close to a cold that's half our staff and pupils.
The kids are scared, there's lots of misinformation being spread by them (they're just kids after all), it's freaking them out and is sad to see.
Better that than a ton of people have it who don't think they have it.
do we know anything else about this individual? Family history, underlying conditions, lifestyle, etc
No insult taken; his stubbornness and Fox News/Mark Levin brainwashing is childishly aggravating at best, fucked up and dangerous at worst
Well you're making it sound like China quarantined the entire country, that is not what they did.
yeah but we don't need people descending on urgent cares and emergency rooms en masse
Better to be overly cautious than flippant and careless.
My asthma has been acting up, no other symptoms yet though, and that alone has been nerve-wracking. Considering what's going on, being scared because of sickness is only human
They quarantined a city of 11 million people. We can't even ban large gatherings without giving exceptions to sporting events.
7 new cases in Alberta, Canada. All travel related. All of them are in isolation at home.
From BC Health's (British Columbia, Canada) press conference:

Good news though. Two patients have recovered, including the 80 year old who was in critical/ICU.
No new cases in Ontario. Only case today was the man who traveled from Switzerland.

I keep hearing cases of young people getting to critical condition. Could it be related to the stronger strain?
Of course, but I'm just saying I think there's quite a few people that may be blocking stuff like this out. Like I have 2 friends with diabetes in their 30's and this freaks me the hell out. Not to mention just for my own family who luckily don't have and strong underlying health conditions. I was a smoker for 15 years though (still smoke green).
Also considering they will test outside of Washington as well. We are going to see a spike.
Still boggles my mind that the current administration's response to this is basically wait and see. I guess I could sort of see Trump pulling this, but how does the GOP not feel a sense of urgency to do something when it's likely to hit their constituency (old people and rural folks w/o access to proper care) the hardest?
Lol, so we just accept this? Spahn is praised over the moon but what exactly did they do until now?
Just some recomendation and the hope we'll find a cure... Yeah, Spahn is doing a great job...
So basically what a dozen liberal states already ordered? I guess better late than never.
I guess we just hope it takes as long as possible to reach that 70% mark, and that the stuff about re-infection isn't what it sounds like.
Have to say the scariest thing about this is people being selfish and not giving a shit. Maybe if someone famous gets it things will change
What do you mean by Taiwan using drastic measures? They locked down a city? What did they do that was not so different from China? Please explain...?
Yeah I can't seem to find any further information on the MN girl in her 30s in critical condition. Anyone find more?
So... just found out that someone who works at my job may possibly have coronavirus. They went to Taiwan mid February & has been out sick since last week. The union just got wind of it & is most likely going to bring it to to the head of the company. I'm kind of freaking out right now.
I was getting worried why the RKI was taking so long with the numbers today.
I wouldn't be bringing up the "stronger strain" stuff again until we get more on it. The only research that exists on two strains has been posted many times and it said the frequency of the more vigorous variety has diminished since early January. So while anything is possible we should probably wait to see confirmation of such things before speculating.
Forget constituency, this virus is likely to hit a vast majority of the house senate republicans directly given their age. The truth is we don't have anyone in the current batch of the GOP that knows how to govern or legislate properly anymore, and they are staring down a force that literally doesn't care what they or anyone thinks of it. They can't bluff through things and they have no answers.
These "one-offs" will occur but really the vast majority of the cases are older folks. I wouldn't let it cause you any undue stress.
