A second person has died of the novel coronavirus in the Seattle area and more confirmed cases of the illness have emerged in Washington State, officials said Sunday evening. Public health leaders in King County, Wash., said a man in his 70s with underlying health conditions died on Saturday at EvergreenHealth hospital in Kirkland. That’s the same facility where officials identified the nation’s first coronavirus death on Saturday — a man in his 50s with underlying health conditions.
Officials also announced three other confirmed coronavirus cases in the county, all at EvergreenHealth. They include a woman in her 80s, a woman in her 90s and a man in his 70s. All were in critical condition with underlying health issues. All four new cases were residents of a nursing facility in Kirkland where two other people — a resident and a worker — had previously tested positive.
Also on Sunday, the county had previously reported two other patients, unrelated to the nursing facility, who were in critical condition at hospitals in Renton and Seattle.

Here's what's going to happen- some kid at one of the the schools or a student at SU is going to get it, and all the betsy homemakers are going to go into a panic tizzy. They will demand all the school across delmarva be shut down.
Killary really outdid herself this time. lol
School shutting down on delmarva for a while wouldn't be a bad idea.
Update-6 people have died.
Northwest Woodsman: Hey, what about the 30,000 deaths just last year from regular common “flu”? Seems like they are trying to create an artificial pandemic and scare ignorant, low information people with the intent of influencing the election. If you doubt my accusation that stupid people are influenced by this nonsense, how about the drop in sales of Corona Beer? Who would be so ignorant as to believe that there is some connection?
over 500 K died world wide from common influenza last year. What the heck is going on this is an absolute scam. Someone is getting rich. Funny thing China can not export all the cheaply made items due to this scam. Sound good to me buy American.
