It usually takes about 3 weeks or so after symptoms show up to find yourself in critical condition. WA is only reporting 2 or 3 cases. And you can have the virus for 2 weeks before symptoms show up. Let that sink in.

Also how does iceland have more cases than new york city?
 
I was at Supercross Atlanta yesterday at Mercedes Benz stadium. Also went to Longhorn for dinner. Anyone who coughed I said “screw all of these carriers”
 
The man that died in Washington was treated at the same hospital as residents of the nursing home where the new cases are. It seems like the hospital is the source

It's the difference between the logistics of testing a population of only ~360,000 on an isolated island in the north Atlantic, versus testing in a five-borough metropolis with a highly mobile population of over 8 million people.

It's not even an apples/oranges comparison; more like watermelon/grape.
 
Sam's Club in my area is out of hand sanitizer, as well a gloves. I have 3-4 boxes of nitrile gloves on hand, but several folks were staring at the shelf where a single case lay empty. No issue with Lysol and wipes. Did score hand sanitizer at Wally World, bought 2 - 60oz refills and 4 of the smaller 16 oz sizes. I did notice a lot of traffic at Sam's focused on household cleaning items. The only thing puzzling me at this point is why after following an exponential growth, as of 2/15 growth is starting to level out. This was not seen in upper end pandemics, at-least from my research.
