Were they mask wearers?
What were their interactions with other humans?
What kind of symptoms did they experience?
Were their hospitalized?
If so, for how long - and what treatment(s) did they receive?
How old are they?
What is their demographic?
What about travel? Did they go anywhere recently?
Do they have any comments to us....the folks....they would like to pass on?

Get these people in front of a microphone or on video. I realize many will refuse any publicity and want their privacy. But not all will.

Do some digging and get us some details.

These media people are pretty damn lazy if you ask me. They wouldn't know human interest/public safety stories if they bit them in their arse.

That is what contact tracing does. US has medical privacy laws so you aren't seeing the results.

Public health personnel have aggregate data.


The virus (like all pathogens) is under selection pressure to evolve to less virulence but we don't really know that it has, and it may never do so.

CFR going down is very likely due to demographic changes in infections.
