Keep you head in the sand if you want. But I'd bet you won't be able to forever.
My 56 year old sister has symptoms consistent with COVID19. She isn't sick enough to go in and be tested, and is self quarantining at home. Hopefully she doesn't get worse.
I spoke with a hunting buddy of mine in North Dakota. 3 of the 4 in their household have tested positive for COVID19. His daughter (positive) is special needs and was already on a ventilator. I'm very worried about her prognosis.
Some have talked about only quarantining those displaying symptoms. The problem with that is the incubation period is somewhere between 5 - 14 days where the individual is asympotamtic. That is why it is believed that each infected individual will infect 2-3 others.
The problem is real, and will likely have a direct impact on everyone in the US.
