Local health experts now realize that the virus has been circulating in SEA since January, but it wasn't a big deal until it reached a vulnerable population in a nursing home, because almost all cases are extremely mild. Unless you are a member of a vulnerable population, there is no reason to fall into or feed the hysteria. There is no waiver for the flu, and that has killed 18,000 this season. Coronavirus has killed 9 in the U.S., all associated with the nursing home.
