      Shah now saluting people's adherence to physical distancing. Reads a lot like encouragement to stick with it.

      Staffing at the alt-care sites: Shah says state is working with hospitals to make that work. He says the idea is to not add by subtracting.

      Shah on seasonality of the virus, to the extent that it exists. He's said before that there isn't a lot of evidence that it will die out with warm weather and cites cases in far warmer places than Maine.

      Shah on the hospitalization numbers, which are cumulative and not representative of people who are currently hospitalized. He says this has been a struggle in other states & says the reporting from hospitals is improving.

      Shah on misinformation: Says two most common are claims that a certain cocktail of vitamins will stave off infection (it won't) and that people in certain age groups can't very sick (they can).

      Asked Shah about what he's most concerned about: He leads with personal protection equipment (PPE). Another is that people who are not well can get access to health care. He's worried about people already disadvantaged, uninsured or under, are not the ones most ravaged by covid

          I'll add that Dr. Shah sort of chuckled at the question as if to say, "everything?"

          Shah just said Maine received 15 Abbott testing machines, but fewer test kits than expected. A potential setback in CDC's efforts to ramp up testing.
