Deploy the national guard in full bio/chem suits, lock down Washington and start testing everyone
Very important thread. By comparing viral genomes, @trvrb finds that the new patient in WA has a strain that appears related to the Jan 19 strain from WA patient, rather than to a Chinese strain.
If so, this means the virus has been spreading undetected in WA for six weeks. https://twitter.com/trvrb/status/1233971005107785728 …pic.twitter.com/kA01HaqVof

silver lining: this would also imply very good things about R0 and lethality

I have a feeling that things may just be nesting within the elevated flu / pneumonia numbers, which, as you state, is a good implication in the event that's what is actually happening.

In another word, thousands may have been infected in WA.

Declare martial law and deploy the national guard now. We still have time to isolate these centers of disease spread.

No one was testing when I asked about a nasty viral URI I was struck with Jan 1, 2020. I just arrived in SFO from BCN
