Assume everyone has it.
We do not have enough tests.

Bumping this thread back up.

This seems . . . not good: https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/public-safety/73-dc-firefighters-and-first-responders-under-quarantine-union-says/2020/03/18/50106074-6948-11ea-b313-df458622c2cc_story.html

and then I saw that a D.C. Superior Court magistrate/bailiff tested positive.

I am surprised there hasn't been any new press conferences lately.

Yep, when Dad has a heart attack carrying six bags of canned goods or a trench collapses on a construction worker or the ER doc is t-boned by a drunk driver, and we don’t have enough first responders, remember that you had a right to do whatever you wanted. And what you wanted was Starbucks and Soul Cycle.

It was a U.S. Marshal at Superior Court.

PP here who bumped the post. yes, it was. I don't know why there isn't more coverage in D.C. about these first responders and those that interact with incarcerated individuals testing positive. where is the update on testing in D.C.?

I also find it really unbelievable that a group of firefighters was recently traveling to celebrate something. Like, they don't even seem to get it fully.

Things were moving quickly last week and even this weekend, but now we seem to be in a bit of a lag of information and urgency.

It is widely reported that she is in “self-isolation”

If it is her, I wonder if we will ever know. That's what happens when you don't take precautions and your father/boss is a total moron.

I think they were updated yesterday evening. If you’re following Washington Post graphi diagram, that’s updated morning and evening. So maybe we’ll know more in a few hours....
