Maybe that’s where the diagnosed Arlington resident works.

Nope, it's where the Marine works:

ARLnow hears that the tenant is the Dept. of Defense and the employee is the Marine at Ft. Belvoir previously reported to have tested positive for the virus.

Why? I haven’t heard of long lines of people wanting to be tested.

My church in OT has a clergy member who was at Christ Church last week, received communion from their rector, etc. Our church has notified the entire congregation and the person is in quarantine with no symptoms. Our church also told us all the times he was at our church interaction with the parish during the time in question. I really appreciate them being so forth coming.

I have had close, consistent contact with somebody who recently travelled to the Bay Area and came back with a respiratory illness, I have a fever of 100, I am coughing up a storm, I am immunocompromised. But I’m not going to go get tested because I know they won’t do it, they don’t have enough test kits and I’m not having major breathing problems. I’m sure there are lots of people out there just like me. Just FYI.

My doctor wouldn’t recommend me. He just told me to stay home.

A couple in Virginia Beach who were on a Nile River Cruise, believe they have it, went once to get tested but the hospital didn’t have any tests finally have been tested and results expected back tonight.

I never knew so many people went on these Nile River Cruises.

You are not having major breathing problems *yet*. Good luck.

The Marine went to Ethiopia, but I don’t see them listed as having cases. It seems the Volleyball club his daughter played in was notified but not the school.

Department of Defense is the tenant of the building and the employee is the marine from Fort Belvoir.

Holy crap. I work in CC, though 7 blocks away where a bunch of the restaurants are.
