LOL, I really messed up early on. Docs say it likely an aerosolized virus so I even wear a mask & gloves to go onto porch to pick up whatever delivery was just made, just in case some droplets hang in still air! But I have been out to drop a package in the mail at the post office vestibule, the doctor, pharmacy & Dominos pizza (twice), bank drive-thru and to pump gas, always masked, gloved, change, wash up after home again, even shoes. Worst thing I did was end of first week of social distancing/quarantine, March 15th or so, maybe the week before, I was hurrying to close up my trash bag, heard the garbage truck coming down the ally & almost ran with my trash out across the backyard to hand it across the fence to the garbage man. He was masked and gloved but hardly sanitized but I wasn't! And we'd only been at each of our arms' lengths! Never even thought - just had to get that garbage out to him! What a silly chance I took back then. Came in, washed and washed, changed clothes, blew my nose, used saline spray several times in my nose, blew it again over & over, used Clear Eyes to lavage eyes and mouthwash rinses, even ran a wet paper towel over my hair and brushed, brushed, took extra Vit C(still do)! This was early on when they didn't know much about how it spread, etc., so short of a shower/shampoo, I did all I thought most would do after coming too close to another. Sat and waited to see if SX. came, thankfully, none did!

| We’ve only had 23 cases here. 3 people died. I believe the three that died were living in an assisted living facility

| If there had to be deaths 3 isn't bad at all. My county alone had over 8500 deaths, but no one that I knew. This is by no means over, wear mask, keep your distance and stay home if you can. Last week on my local news they now say dogs and cats, especially cats, domestic and wild can catch this virus. They said if you have the virus do not keep your pets close to you.

| No one I know has even tested positive. Out of 30+ million people in our state, true, a state with lots of independent types who think they never have to follow the rules unless it suits them, few young adults ever wear masks, never quarantine it seems, we've had very small percentage of deaths, those 75% were 65-75 or older, I think, sadly too likely related to youths out and about, carrying it to the older folks they might be around.

| Yes, I know 7 people, five probable (received appointments with doc through internet, so they are not counted in numbers) and 2 lab confirmed. Can you imagine all the people that might have had it and gone untested? Of those people counted or not, one is a school policeman, one a college employee on Covid response team, and one attended a protest. The rest are either spouses or unknown how or why. Most had symptoms in March.

| Something I read the other day. On an average, a person infected gives the virus to someone else. We’re at phase 4 here. I’m one of the minority wearing a mask where I live.. Sad |

| My county has 3 phases, this Friday we enter phase 3 where everything is open. Mask is mandatory for all stores, I have seen ppl in Loews with no mask, they are not asked to leave. I go out only when it's an absolute must and I am not around crowds of ppl, I have my mask on and hand sanitizer which is now abundant in CVS and Riteaid.

As far as the people I know, some were very sick, and some not so much and one person had no symptoms but had a positive test and was the spouse of someone that was very sick. All quarantined correctly and are now back normal. For us, I only see my neighbors and wear a mask to go to Kroger so hopefully we can avoid Covid. On a different note, my dogs are sure happy we stay home so much
