Since their cases--so far-- are mild it is unlikely they would have been tested if they had not been contacted. Bear in mind that MD has done only 31 tests.

Supposition is that they were on the first leg of Grand Princess cruise and were contacted because they names were on the manifest.

Another thought is that they could have been on the Nile cruise.They have been doing contact tracing on that and Egypt announced that 12 crew were found to be positive today. Testing was carried out because a passenger, a Taiwanese-American, tested positive when he returned home. Not sure if that was home to Taiwan or the US.

As for government, restricted travel was ok, but not getting tests and actually getting ready is the worst oversight of this government yet. And that is something.

What is the point. Enough people have already been exposed. Every person the NY lawyer came in contact with has tested positive so far - every.single.one. This is only a matter of time.

Stay home 14 days if I think I’ve been exposed, but don’t buy two weeks of food now (that’s panic hoarding!) so I have it when I need it.

Also, wear a mask if I am sick and must obtain medical care, but the government doesn’t want me to buy masks while I am well. So I will obtain the mask to keep my coronavirus to myself how?

But only got tested 2 days ago? Yeah sure

Well, testing was restricted so that wouldn't shock me. And if they didn't have severe symptoms, I'm glad they stayed home vs venturing out to sit in a doctor's waiting room or an ER waiting room...

They did go to a hospital

That is my assumption. On NPR this morning they said CDC was seeking out those passengers.

And from the post yesterday:

"All three — a husband and wife in their 70s and a woman in her 50s — were on a cruise overseas and returned to Maryland Feb. 20, officials have said. They experienced flu-like symptoms shortly after arriving home, and sought medical treatment."
