Now there are two coronavirus stories running concurrently. A tool the media likes to use to add complete confusion. A 911 call is placed at some unknown time to come to Life Care Center. The media gets there before the responders do.
Sloppy pre-cautions are taken by the arriving firefighters, some without protective clothing, some with out masks and the entire station / stations are forced out of service and into quarantine. Media reports 12, then 19 and finally 25 firefighters are quarantined. Where was the safety officer? Isn't he or she suppose to establish the risk to arriving responders and stop them before entering a location?
And then there is another mysterious outbreak within the same facility but Kirkland cannot send any responders to the facility because they are all quarantined, so a city bordering Kirkland has to respond--Redmond.
Apparently it takes seven people to load one person into an aid car. Two to push and pull and five to hold up sheets. The sick person is covered in complete protective gear including a face mask which makes them unrecognizable anyway, so why hold up sheets? This is show and also careless putting the entire fire department at risk for a lawsuit should any sheet holder contract the virus. And look at this, a full on front shot with no sheet covering. It exposes them doesn't it. There's no way a person is recognizable with a mask over their face.
Bank robbers figured this out in the early 20's and they still use it.
For some unknown reason none of the staff working at the Kirkland Care facility are ever quarantined. Only the responding unit from Redmond are quarantined, but they threw in a couple of police officers.
The Kirkland Care facility eventually quarantines the patients but not the staff. The patients then become isolated from worrying family members with no details about their, mother, father, brother or friend from inside. They make signs and hold them at the door of the facility.
Why can't the staff reply back with a sign? Why can't a phone be used--internet? Is technology quarantined as well? It seems so. With one already dead and the virus spreading out of control the Seattle Times reports there will "likely," be more to come and they know at what rate it will double every six days. Six is a magic number.
Who is the scientist? Where did he get this information? He used simple addition. No calculator needed--two hands with six fingers will do. How come no other scientist in the world working on this has reported this? His name is Trevor Bedford. He believes the virus will spread in Snohomish County but it isn't. It's spreading in King County.
Five days after the first reported death there are nine dead. According to Trevor there should be 6 X 5=30 dead.
Nine is also a magic number. It's also a six upside down. It's interesting how the numbers always seem to stop at six and nine. The panic crosses into the business community and businesses began shutting down or thinking about it.
Schools as far as 30 miles away from Evergreen Hospital and Life Care Center began closing, while schools located within a mile of where the virus first decided to raise its ugly head remain open with no schedule changes. Does that make any sense?
Does closing schools make everyone safer? The virus found a person / persons in what would be considered the safest place--a hospital. I think it could just as easily find a teenage kid at home playing Nintendo games. How does one school superintendent determine their schools are at risk while a neighboring district feels their schools aren't at risk? Parents aren't chancing it and began pulling their kids out of school.
I'm going to pinch this off for now, but I have a feeling I'll be back and write the pants don't fit either. Will they end up being naked and exposed, or will nameless, faceless numbers continue to rise? They don't know what I know.
