Washington DC just announced their first presumptive.

Gov. Mike Parson and Missouri health officials announced a young woman in St. Louis County is the state's first presumptive positive case of coronavirus.

Officials said the woman attends college out of state, was studying abroad in Italy and is self-quarantined at home with her family.

Officials also said there are still three other people in Missouri being monitored for coronavirus, with tests still in progress.

The announcement in Missouri comes little more than an hour after Kansas officials said they had a presumptive positive case in Johnson County, Kansas.

That’s pretty funny. I am just getting over a dry cough illness that lasted about ten days and on one of the final days spent about two hours in a car dealership waiting for my vehicle to be repaired. I couldn’t stop coughing and got a lot of funny looks, one person actually relocated to a different area

Cool animation of the virus spreading...

You are welcome. I usually do maybe 2 updates a day.

I'm sure you did. I would definitely not sit around someone coughing uncontrollably but if I were that person, I would either stay home or wait outside away from other people. It's pretty selfish to expose people to bugs unnecessarily

Trump 'not concerned' as coronavirus cases rise in DC area

PALM BEACH, FLA. -- Cases of coronavirus touching on the Washington, D.C., area arose Saturday, but President Donald Trump said he wasn't concerned that the virus was getting closer to the nation's capital and the White House.

Asked if he was concerned about the virus getting closer, Trump said: "No, I'm not concerned at all. No, I'm not. We've done a great job." When asked whether he would continue campaign rallies in light of the CPAC case, the president replied, "We'll have tremendous rallies."

Trump waved off other questions to join a dinner for the president of Brazil, who was visiting Trump in south Florida.

Maryland officials warned Saturday that a person who attended the recent Conservative Political Action Conference in the suburb of Oxon Hill had tested positive for the virus. Both Trump and Vice-President Mike Pence spoke at the conference, but the White House said there was no indication that either was in close proximity to the infected attendee.

First Latin American death because of coronavirus was in Argentina, a man, 64 years oldd: source in spanish - source in english (google translate

He had pre-existing conditions: Diabetes, hypertension, chronic bronchitis and renal insufficiency. (He was in a very bad shape before getting it).

Also in Honduras there are 9 suspected cases. source in spanish - Source in english (google translate)

The last suspected case arrived from Mexico, he was deported. It is suspected he has a pulmonary tuberculosis, but they will test him anyways. It would be bad news for Mexico if it tests positive.

Another suspect is a 53 years old woman that arrived from southern Italy, Naples. If positive, Honduras might get the Italian strain, not good.

What’s wrong with King Labron saying he won’t play to no fans?

In other words: We Are There

Guess I’m selfish then, because my life doesn’t stop when I have an ongoing cough I still have a family to care for.

Official: White House didn't want to tell seniors not to fly

NEW YORK (AP) — The White House overruled health officials who wanted to recommend that elderly and physically fragile Americans be advised not to fly on commercial airlines because of the new coronavirus, a federal official told The Associated Press.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention submitted the plan this week as a way of trying to control the virus, but White House officials ordered the air travel recommendation be removed, said the official who had direct knowledge of the plan. Trump administration officials have since suggested certain people should consider not traveling, but they have stopped short of the stronger guidance sought by the CDC.

The person who spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity did not have authorization to talk about the matter. The person did not have direct knowledge about why the decision to kill the language was made.

Kansas is basically providing almost no information about the positive in Johnson County, KS.

She went to NE United States. Her symptoms started before she left that state and was tested in Kansas yesterday. They go on and on how she self isolated herself and did "all the right things" and any close contacts with the lady will be contacted.

But, if she was showing symptoms before she left, she was on an airplane, she went through the airport. Her luggage could have been handled by luggage people.

Why all the secret info? I don't understand.
